Modeling the mechanics of amorphous solids at different length scale and time scale (2011, background): “Persistent localization occurs mainly in slowly quenched glasses [224, 226] and is favored in simple shear by fixed boundaries [273] and in uniaxial straining by free surfaces [42, 43, 224, 226].”
The role of local structure in dynamical arrest (2014, background): “[160] M. L. Falk and J. S. Langer.”
Micro-plasticity and recent insights from intermittent and small-scale plasticity (2017, background): “The main finding of atomistic simulations is that athermal plasticity is mediated by spatially local plastic transitions, which collectively result in the macroscopic plasticity of (athermal) shear banding [117-125] – a macroscopic flow mechanism that experimentally is known to be thermally activate”
Theoretical perspective on the glass transition and amorphous materials (2010, background): “Yet, experiments (Coussot et al., 2002; Bécu et al., 2006; Ianni et al., 2008) and simulations (Varnik et al., 2003; Zink et al., 2006; Shi and Falk, 2006) clearly reveal for instance that soft glassy materials commonly display the phenomenon of shear-banding.”
