It is well known that under plastic deformation, dislocations are not only created but also move through the crystal, and their mobility is impeded by their interaction with the crystal structure. At high stress and temperature, this `drag'…
Despite the viscosity of a fluid ranges over several orders of magnitudes and is extremely sensitive to microscopic structure and molecular interactions, it has been conjectured that its (opportunely normalized) minimum displays a universal…

It is a fundamental postulate that quasiparticles in 3D space obey either Bosonic or Fermionic statistics, satisfying either canonical commutation or anti-commutation relation. However, under certain constraints, such as the 2D dimensional…
The present paper extends the thermodynamic dislocation theory developed by Langer, Bouchbinder, and Lookmann to non-uniform plastic deformations. The free energy density as well as the positive definite dissipation function are proposed.…
Plasticity of metals is the emergent phenomenon of many crystal defects (dislocations) which interact and move on microscopic time and length scales. Two of the commonly used models to describe such dislocation dynamics are the…
