A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in
soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal …

Liquid foams can behave like solids or liquids, depending on the applied stress and on the
experimental timescale. Understanding the origin of this complex rheology which gives rise …

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 …

We present results on numerical simulations of an atomistic system undergoing plastic shear
flow in the athermal, quasistatic limit. The system is shown to undergo cascades of local …

We show that, in the athermal quasistatic deformation of amorphous materials, the onset of
failure is accompanied by universal scalings associated with a divergence of elastic …

Molecular dynamics simulations with varying damping are used to examine the effects of
inertia and spatial dimension on sheared disordered solids in the athermal quasistatic limit …

We investigate the two-dimensional flow of a liquid foam around a circular obstacle by
measuring all the local fields necessary to describe this flow: velocity, pressure, and bubble …

We study the statistics of plastic rearrangement events in a simulated amorphous solid at T=
0. Events are characterized by the energy release and the “slip volume”, the product of …

For amorphous solids, it has been intensely debated whether the traditional view on solids,
in terms of the ground state and harmonic low energy excitations on top of it, such as …

We perform computational studies of jammed particle packings in two dimensions
undergoing isotropic compression using the well-characterized soft particle (SP) model and …
