We study a mean field elastoplastic model, embedded within a disordered landscape of
local yield barriers, to shed light on the behavior of athermal amorphous solids subject to …

We study theoretically the dynamical process of yielding in cyclically sheared amorphous
materials, within a thermal elastoplastic model and the soft glassy rheology model. Within …

We construct a mean-field elastoplastic description of the dynamics of amorphous solids
under arbitrary time-dependent perturbations, building on the work of Lin and Wyart [Phys …

We study the annealing and rejuvenation behavior of a two-dimensional amorphous solid
model under oscillatory shear. We show that, depending on the cooling protocol used to …

We show that, at least at a mean-field level, the effect of structural disorder in sheared
amorphous media is very dissimilar depending on the thermal or athermal nature of their …

We study the linear response to strain in a mean-field elastoplastic model for athermal
amorphous solids, incorporating the power-law mechanical noise spectrum arising from …

The dynamics of supercooled liquids and plastically deformed amorphous solids is known to
be dominated by the structure of their rough energy landscapes. Recent experiments and …

We build a minimal, mean-field, model of plasticity of amorphous solids, based upon a
phenomenology of dissipative events derived, in a preceding paper [A. Lemaitre, C. Caroli …

We consider the yielding behavior of amorphous solids under cyclic shear deformation and
show that it can be mapped into a random walk in a confining potential with an absorbing …

Developing a unified theory describing both ductile and brittle yielding constitutes a
fundamental challenge of non-equilibrium statistical physics. Recently, it has been proposed …
