In complex crystals close to melting or at finite temperatures, different types of defects are ubiquitous and their role becomes relevant in the mechanical response of these solids. Conventional elasticity theory fails to provide a…

The features of the emissions of light particles ($LP$), charged particles ($CP$), intermediate mass fragments ($IMF$) and the largest fragment ($MAX$) are investigated for $^{129}Xe$ as functions of temperature and "freeze-out" density in…

Dilute granular flows are routinely described by collisional kinetic theory, but dense flows require a fundamentally different approach, due to long-lasting, many-body contacts. In the case of silo drainage, many continuum models have been…
