Fatigue failure in glasses under cyclic shear deformation
Solids subjected to repeated cycles of stress or deformation can fail after several cycles, a
phenomenon termed fatigue failure. Although intensely investigated for a wide range of …

Creep failure of amorphous solids under tensile stress
Applying constant tensile stress to a piece of amorphous solid results in a slow extension,
followed by an eventual rapid mechanical collapse. This “creep” process is of paramount …
