Spectral Decomposition of Liquid Viscosity into Instantaneous Normal Modes

Long-Zhou Huang, Bingyu Cui, Min-Qiang Jiang +2

Viscosity, the resistance of a liquid to flow, is driven by atomic-scale friction but its microscopic origin remains poorly understood. We use a theoretical framework based on nona…

Atomistic structural mechanism for the glass transition: Entropic contribution

Dong Han, Dan Wei, Jie Yang +5

A popular Adam--Gibbs scenario has suggested that the excess entropy of glass and liquid over crystal dominates the dynamical arrest at the glass transition with exclusive contribu…

Assessing the Utility of Structure in Amorphous Materials

Dan Wei, Jie Yang, Min-Qiang Jiang +5

This paper presents a set of general strategies for the analysis of structure in amorphous materials and a general approach to assessing the utility of a selected structural descri…

Atomic theory of viscoelastic response and memory effects in metallic glasses

Bingyu Cui, Jie Yang, Jichao Qiao +4

An atomic-scale theory of the viscoelastic response of metallic glasses is derived from first principles, using a Zwanzig-Caldeira-Leggett system-bath Hamiltonian as a starting poi…

Dilatancy of Shear Transformations in a Colloidal Glass

Y. Z. Lu, M. Q. Jiang, X. Lu +3

Shear transformations, as fundamental rearrangement events operating in local regions, hold the key of plastic flow of amorphous solids. Despite their importance, the dynamic featu…
