We present a thorough study of the plastic response of a granular material progressively loaded. We study experimentally the evolution of the plastic field from a homogeneous one to an heterogeneous one and its fluctuations in term of…
The two-dimensional Falicov-Kimball (FK) model is analyzed using Monte Carlo method. In the case of concentrations of both itinerant and localized particles equal to 0.5 we determine temperature dependence of specific heat, charge density…
Fractal patterns are observed in computational mechanics of elastic-plastic transitions in two models of linear elastic/perfectly-plastic random heterogeneous materials: (1) a composite made of locally isotropic grains with weak random…
Understanding the mechanical instabilities of two-dimensional membranes has strong connection to the subjects of structure instabilities, morphology control and materials failures. In this work, we investigate the plastic mechanism…
A scheme to calculate the electronic structure of systems having a spiral magnetic structure is presented. The approach is based on the KKR (Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker) Green's function formalism which allows in combination with CPA (Coherent…
The spontaneous emergence of heterogeneous dislocation patterns is a conspicuous feature of plastic deformation and strain hardening of crystalline solids. Despite long-standing efforts in the materials science and physics of defect…
We propose an alternative theory for the relaxation of density fluctuations in glass-forming fluids. We derive an equation of motion for the density correlation function which is local in time and is similar in spirit to the equation of…
We consider a fractional plasticity model based on linear isotropic and kinematic hardening as well as a standard von-Mises yield function, where the flow rule is replaced by a Riesz--Caputo fractional derivative. The resulting mathematical…
Steady-state properties of microemulsions in shear flow are studied in the context of a Ginzburg-Landau free-energy approach. Explicit expressions are given for the structure factor and the time correlation function at the one loop level of…
We calculate the finite size scaling of the sample-to-sample fluctuations of the free energy $\Delta F$ of the $m$ component vector spin glass in the large-$m$ limit. This is accomplished using a variant of the interpolating Hamiltonian…
We present an analysis of diffusion in terms of the spontaneous density fluctuations in a non-thermal two-species fluid modeled by a lattice gas automaton. The power spectrum of the density correlation function is computed with statistical…
Unlike macroscopic multistable mechanical systems such as snap bracelets or elastic shells that must be physically manipulated into various conformations, microscopic systems can undergo spontaneous conformation switching between…
We investigate uniqueness issues for a continuity equation arising out of the simplest model for plasticity, Hencky plasticity. The associated system is of the form $\rm{ curl\;}(\mu\sigma)=0$ where $\mu$ is a nonnegative measure and…
This thesis report deals with the 1D Hubbard model and the quantum objects that diagonalize the normal ordered Hubbard hamiltonian, among those the so called PseudoFermions (PFs). These PFs have no residual energy interactions, are eta-spin…
Magnetic ordering at low temperature for Ising ferromagnets manifests itself within the associated Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) random cluster representation as the occurrence of a single positive density percolating network. In this paper we…
Based on the recent free electron model for cohesion in narrow metallic constrictions by Stafford et al., we calculate the quantum fluctuations in the cohesive force versus elongation. The fluctuations are dominated by states near the Fermi…
Numerical simulation of the dislocation motion in 2D Frenkel - Kontorova (FK) model in the thermostat shows an unusual dynamical behavior. It appears that ''kink'' regime of dislocation gliding takes place in a certain region of parameters…
The efforts associated with parametrization of continuum-based models for crystal plasticity are a significant obstacle for the routine use of these models in materials science and engineering. While phenomenological constitutive…
A free-energy functional for a crystal that contains both the symmetry conserved and symmetry broken parts of the direct pair correlation function is developed. The free-energy functional is used to investigate the crystallization of fluids…
Prior to macroscopic yielding, most materials undergo a regime of plastic activity that cannot be resolved in conventional bulk deformation experiments. In this pre-yield, or micro-plastic regime, it is the initial three dimensional defect…
