Scaling Description of Creep Flow in Amorphous Solids

Matthieu Wyart, Thomas Willem Jan de Geus, Wencheng Ji, Marko Popovic

Amorphous solids such as coffee foam, toothpaste, or mayonnaise display a transient creep flow when a stress E is suddenly imposed. The associated strain rate is commonly found to decay in time as gamma_ -t-nu, followed either by arrest or by a sudden flui ...

Design of experiments to investigate multi-additive cellulose nanocrystal films

Tiffany Abitbol

Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions can self-assemble into chiral nematic films upon the slow evaporation of water. These films are brittle, as indicated by their fracturing instead of plastically deforming once they are fully elastically deformed. Thi ...

Nature-inspired Circular-economy Recycling (NaCRe) for Proteins

Simone Giaveri

Since a few decades our planet has been loaded with billion tons of synthetic polymer-based materials, commonly named plastics. The large scale of plastic production, associated with its limited recyclability, are the driving force for the accumulation of ...

Microstructural controls of anticrack nucleation in highly porous brittle solids

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Henning Löwe, Jonas Ritter

Porous brittle solids have the ability to collapse and fail even under compressive stresses. In fracture mechanics, this singular behavior, often referred to as anticrack, demands for appropriate continuum models to predict the catastrophic failure. To ide ...
