Recent studies point out far-reaching connections between the topological characteristics of structural glasses and their material properties, paralleling results in quantum physics that highlight the relevance of the nature of the wavefunction. Howe

The medium range order (MRO) in amorphous systems has been linked to complex features such as the dynamic heterogeneity of supercooled liquids or the plastic deformation of glasses. However, the nature of the MRO in these materials has remained elusi

Granular materials such as sand, powders, and food grains are ubiquitous in civil engineering, geoscience, agriculture, and medicine. While the influence of friction between the grains on the static structure of these systems is well understood, its

Creating amorphous solid states by randomly bonding an ensemble of dense liquid monomers is a common procedure which is applied to create a variety of materials such as epoxy resins, colloidal gels, and vitrimers. The properties of the resulting soli

The transport properties of glass-forming systems have many features that are not found in normal liquids. Among them is a very strong sensitivity of the relaxation times upon a change in temperature and the presence of so-called dynamical heterogene
Using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the surface properties of lithium, sodium, and potassium silicate glasses containing 25 mole % of alkali oxide. The comparison of two types of surfaces, a melt-formed surface (MS) and a

The conventional wisdom is that liquids are completely disordered and lack non-trivial structure beyond nearest-neighbor distances. Recent observations have upended this view and demonstrated that the microstructure in liquids is surprisingly rich an

Granular materials such as sand, powders, and grains are omnipresent in daily life, industrial applications, and earth-science [1]. When unperturbed, they form stable structures that resemble the ones of other amorphous solids like metallic and collo

The elasticity of disordered and polydisperse polymer networks is a fundamental problem of soft matter physics that is still open. Here, we self-assemble polymer networks via simulations of a mixture of bivalent and tri- or tetravalent patchy particl

Using particle trajectory data obtained from x-ray tomography, we determine two kinds of effective temperatures in a cyclically sheared granular system. The first one is obtained from the fluctuation-dissipation theorem which relates the diffusion an
