Elasticity and plasticity of disordered systems, a statistical physics perspective

Jean-Louis Barrat

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2018, vol. 504, issue C, 20-30

Abstract: Elasticity and plasticity are generally considered as engineering topics. In these lectures, I will try to show that they can also be seen as interesting problems from a statistical physics standpoint, emphasising the universal, material independent features. I will focus on the case of amorphous solids, which has undergone many recent experimental and theoretical developments.
