Avalanche-size distributions in mean-field plastic yielding models.
We discuss the size distribution N(S) of avalanches occurring at the yielding transition of mean-field (i.e., Hebraud-Lequeux) models of amorphous solids. The size distribution follows a power law dependence of the form N(S)∼S(-τ). However (contrary to what is found in its depinning counterpart), the value of τ depends on details of the dynamic protocol used. For random triggering of avalanches...
متن کاملYielding and Irreversible Deformation below the Microscale: Surface Effects and Non-Mean-Field Plastic Avalanches
Nanoindentation techniques recently developed to measure the mechanical response of crystals under external loading conditions reveal new phenomena upon decreasing sample size below the microscale. At small length scales, material resistance to irreversible deformation depends on sample morphology. Here we study the mechanisms of yield and plastic flow in inherently small crystals under uniaxia...
متن کاملChondrule Size Distributions: What Does It Mean?
One primary characteristic of chondrite groups is their distinctive size-frequency chondrule distributions [1,2, 3]. The restricted ranges of chondrule size has been interpreted as indicative of a sorting mechanism, such as some form of aerodynamic drag [3, 4]. We re-examine this concept in light of the current database. The database and its limitations. Chondrule sizes are typically determined...
متن کاملOptimization in mean field models
The non-rigorous cavity method of statistical mechanics, originally developed in the study of spin glasses and other disordered systems, has led to a number of purely mathematical predictions. Several of them can be found in the remarkable book [17] by Marc Mézard, Giorgio Parisi and Miguel Angel Virasoro. Establishing these predictions rigorously remains a challenge to probability theory. Impo...
متن کاملUniversal features of amorphous plasticity
Plastic yielding of amorphous solids occurs by power-law distributed deformation avalanches whose universality is still debated. Experiments and molecular dynamics simulations are hampered by limited statistical samples, and although existing stochastic models give precise exponents, they require strong assumptions about fixed deformation directions, at odds with the statistical isotropy of amo...
