Time-dependent dynamical properties of a fluid can not be estimated from a single configuration without performing a simulation. Here we show, however, that the scaling properties of both structure and dynamics can be predicted from a…
Structural system identification in the presence of thermal loads is challenging, as unmeasured or poorly modeled thermal effects can mask or mimic damage, leading to unreliable conclusions. This work presents an optimization-driven,…
We explain the findings by Di Leonardo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 6054 (2000)] that the effective temperature of a Lennard-Jones glass depends only on the final value of the density in the volume and/or temperature jump that produces the…
