Abstract
In this work using computer simulations of 3D model of dense disordered solids we show, for the first time, the appearance of shear localization in the stationary flow under homogeneous driving conditions. To rationalize our simulation results we develop a continuum model, that couples the dynamics of the local flow to the evolution of a kinetic temperature field related to the local inertial dynamics. Our model predicts that the coupling of the flow field to this additional destabilizing field appears only as a necessary condition for shear localization, a minimum system size is necessary to accommodate the flow instability. Moreover we show that this size criterion resulting from our continuum description is in quantitative agreement with our particle-based simulation results.
期刊介绍:
EPJ E publishes papers describing advances in the understanding of physical aspects of Soft, Liquid and Living Systems.
Soft matter is a generic term for a large group of condensed, often heterogeneous systems -- often also called complex fluids -- that display a large response to weak external perturbations and that possess properties governed by slow internal dynamics.
Flowing matter refers to all systems that can actually flow, from simple to multiphase liquids, from foams to granular matter.
Living matter concerns the new physics that emerges from novel insights into the properties and behaviours of living systems. Furthermore, it aims at developing new concepts and quantitative approaches for the study of biological phenomena. Approaches from soft matter physics and statistical physics play a key role in this research.
The journal includes reports of experimental, computational and theoretical studies and appeals to the broad interdisciplinary communities including physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics and materials science.
