Predicting plasticity in disordered solids from structural indicators
Amorphous solids lack long-range order. Therefore identifying structural defects—akin to
dislocations in crystalline solids—that carry plastic flow in these systems remains a daunting …

Microscopic dynamics underlying the stress relaxation of arrested soft materials
Arrested soft materials such as gels and glasses exhibit a slow stress relaxation with a broad
distribution of relaxation times in response to linear mechanical perturbations. Although this …

Nonlinear quasilocalized excitations in glasses: True representatives of soft spots
Structural glasses formed by quenching a melt possess a population of soft quasilocalized
excitations—often called “soft spots”—that are believed to play a key role in various …

Dynamic Gardner cross-over in a simple glass
The criticality of the jamming transition responsible for amorphous solidification has been
theoretically linked to the marginal stability of a thermodynamic Gardner phase. While the …

Elastic interactions of plastic events in strained amorphous solids before yield
It has been widely accepted that the plastic events of amorphous solids after mechanical
yield belong to a highly correlated avalanche state. However, whether the plastic events …

Inferring the flow properties of epithelial tissues from their geometry
Amorphous materials exhibit complex material properties with strongly nonlinear behaviors.
Below a yield stress they behave as plastic solids, while they start to yield above a critical …
