Granular packings display a wealth of mechanical features which are of widespread significance. One of these features is creep: the slow deformation under applied stress. Creep is common for many other amorphous materials such as many…
We investigate the dynamic evolution of jamming in granular media through fluctuations in the granular drag force. The successive collapse and formation of jammed states give a stick-slip nature to the fluctuations which is independent of…

Creep is a time-dependent deformation of solids at relatively low stresses, leading to the breakdown with time. Here we propose a simple model for creep failure of disordered solids, in which temperature and stress are controllable. Despite…
