Breakdown of nonlinear elasticity in stress-controlled thermal amorphous solids.
In recent work it was clarified that amorphous solids under strain control do not possess nonlinear elastic theory in the sense that the shear modulus exists but nonlinear moduli exhibit sample-to-sample fluctuations that grow without bound with the system size. More relevant, however, for experiments are the conditions of stress control. In the present Rapid Communication we show that also und...
متن کاملBreakdown of continuum elasticity in amorphous solids.
We show numerically that the response of simple amorphous solids (elastic networks and particle packings) to a local force dipole is characterized by a lengthscale lc that diverges as unjamming is approached as lc ∼ (z - 2d)(-1/2), where z ≥ 2d is the mean coordination, and d is the spatial dimension, at odds with previous numerical claims. We also show how the magnitude of the lengthscale lc i...
متن کاملAthermal nonlinear elastic constants of amorphous solids.
We derive expressions for the lowest nonlinear elastic constants of amorphous solids in athermal conditions (up to third order), in terms of the interaction potential between the constituent particles. The effect of these constants cannot be disregarded when amorphous solids undergo instabilities such as plastic flow or fracture in the athermal limit; in such situations the elastic response inc...

Review copy ± not for distribution (pss-logo will be inserted here by the publisher) pss-‐Header will be provided by the publisher 1 Introduction The continuous random network (CRN) has become the accepted model for homogeneously disordered materials, and for good reason: such atomistic models reproduce the experimentally observed properties of the materials, including some of the finer detail...
متن کاملEffects of coordination and pressure on sound attenuation, boson peak and elasticity in amorphous solids.
Connectedness and applied stress strongly affect elasticity in solids. In various amorphous materials, mechanical stability can be lost either by reducing connectedness or by increasing pressure. We present an effective medium theory of elasticity that extends previous approaches by incorporating the effect of compression, of amplitude e, allowing one to describe quantitative features of sound ...
