Stochastic thermodynamics as reviewed here systematically provides a framework for
extending the notions of classical thermodynamics such as work, heat and entropy …

A theoretical perspective is provided on the glass transition in molecular liquids at thermal
equilibrium, on the spatially heterogeneous and aging dynamics of disordered materials …

We have studied how two-and three-dimensional systems made up of particles interacting
with finite range, repulsive potentials jam (ie, develop a yield stress in a disordered state) at …

This book gives a pedagogical introduction to the physics of amorphous solids and related
disordered condensed matter systems. Important concepts from statistical mechanics such …

We present results on a series of two-dimensional atomistic computer simulations of
amorphous systems subjected to simple shear in the athermal, quasistatic limit. The …

Glassy solids exhibit a wide variety of generic thermomechanical properties, ranging from
universal anomalous specific heat at cryogenic temperatures to nonlinear plastic yielding …

The conceptual problems arising in the definition and measurement of temperature in non-
equilibrium states are discussed in this paper in situations where the local-equilibrium …

We review the recent literature on the simulation of the structure and deformation of
amorphous solids, including oxide and metallic glasses. We consider simulations at different …

We carry out numerical simulations to study transport behavior about the jamming transition
of a<? format?> model granular material in two dimensions at zero temperature. Shear …

We explore numerically the shear rheology of soft repulsive particles at large volume
fraction. The interplay between viscous dissipation and thermal motion results in multiple …
