Focusing on isotropic elastic networks we propose a novel simple-average expression $G(t) = \mu_A - h(t)$ for the computational determination of the shear-stress relaxation modulus $G(t)$ of a classical elastic solid or fluid and its…
We investigate by means of molecular dynamics simulation a coarse-grained polymer glass model focusing on (quasi-static and dynamical) shear-stress fluctuations as a function of temperature T and sampling time $\Delta t$. The linear…
Using molecular dynamics simulation of a standard coarse-grained polymer glass model we investigate by means of the stress-fluctuation formalism the shear modulus $\mu$ as a function of temperature $T$ and sampling time $\Delta t$. While…
Using molecular dynamics simulation of a polymer glass model we investigate free-standing polymer films focusing on the in-plane shear modulus $\mu$ and the corresponding shear-stress relaxation modulus $G(t)$ as functions of temperature…
We revisit the relation between the shear stress relaxation modulus $G(t)$, computed at finite shear strain $0 < \gamma \ll 1$, and the shear stress autocorrelation functions $C(t)|_{\gamma}$ and $C(t)|_{\tau}$ computed, respectively, at…
The shear modulus G of two glass-forming colloidal model systems in d=3 and d=2 dimensions is investigated by means of, respectively, molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. Comparing ensembles where either the shear strain gamma or…
The shear stress relaxation modulus $G(t)$ may be determined from the shear stress $\tau(t)$ after switching on a tiny step strain $\gamma$ or by inverse Fourier transformation of the storage modulus $G^{\prime}(\omega)$ or the loss modulus…
Focusing on shear-stress fluctuations we investigate numerically a simple generic model for self-assembled transient networks formed by repulsive beads reversibly bridged by ideal springs. With $\Delta dt$ being the sampling time and…
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we study dynamics of a model polymer melt composed of short chains with bead number N=10 in supercooled states. In quiescent conditions, the stress relaxation function $G(t)$ is calculated, which…
We construct a linear response theory of applying shear deformations from boundary walls in the film geometry in Kubo's theoretical scheme. Our method is applicable to any solids and fluids. For glasses, we assume quasi-equilibrium around a…
We solve exactly and describe in detail a simplified scalar model for the low frequency shear rheology of foams, emulsions, slurries, etc. [P. Sollich, F. Lequeux, P. Hebraud, M.E. Cates, Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 2020 (1997)]. The model…
The glass transition is described in terms of thermally activated local structural rearrangements, the secondary relaxations of the glass phase. The interaction between these secondary relaxations leads to a much faster and much more…
We compute the shear modulus of amorphous hard and soft spheres, using the exact solution in infinite spatial dimensions that has been developed recently. We characterize the behavior of this observable in the whole phase diagram, and in…
In a recent letter, Govaert et al. examined the relationship between strain hardening modulus $G_r$ and flow stress $\sigma_{flow}$ for five different glassy polymers. In each case, results for $G_r$ at different strain rates or different…
We show that in monomeric supercooled liquids and glasses that are plastically flowing at a constant shear stress $\sigma$ while being deformed with strain rate $\dot{\epsilon}$, the microscopic structural relaxation time $\tau_{\rm str}$…
A recent hypothesis claims that the glass transition itself, though it is a very pronounced relaxation peak, is no separate relaxation process at all, but is just the breakdown of the shear modulus due to the weak elastic dipole interaction…
The shear modulus of solid $^4$He exhibits an anomalous change of order 10%[1, 2] at low temperatures that is qualitatively similar to the much smaller frequency change in torsional oscillator experiments. We propose that in solid $^4$He…
We study the onset of rigidity near the glass transition (GT) in a short-chain polymer melt modelled by a bead-spring model, where all beads interact with Lennard-Jones potentials. The properties of the system are examined above and below…
Motivated by the formal argument that a non-zero shear modulus is the result of averaging over a constrained configurations space, we demonstrate that the shear modulus calculated over a range of temperatures and averaging times can be…
We investigate generic inequalities of various contributions to the shear modulus $\mu$ in ensembles of amorphous elastic bodies. We focus first on a simple elastic network model with connectivity matrices (CMs) which are either annealed or…
