“Designing Disordered Hyperuniform Two-phase Materials with Novel Physical Properties” is published in Acta Materialia Categories News Author chmadmin Read the full paper: here Heterogeneous materials consisting of different phases are ideally suited to achieve a broad spectrum of desirable bulk physical properties by combining the best features of the constituents through the strategic spatial arrangement of the different phases. Disordered hyperuniform heterogeneous materials are new, exotic amorphous matter that behave like crystals in … Continue Reading “Designing Disordered Hyperuniform Two-phase Materials with Novel Physical Properties” is published in Acta Materialia
“Large-Scale Structure and Hyperuniformity of Amorphous Ices” is published in Physical Review Letters Categories News Author chmadmin Read the full paper: here Read a Princeton University news story about the article: here We investigate the large-scale structure of amorphous ices and transitions between their different forms by quantifying their large-scale density fluctuations. Specifically, we simulate the isothermal compression of low-density amorphous ice (LDA) and hexagonal ice to produce high-density amorphous ice (HDA). … Continue Reading “Large-Scale Structure and Hyperuniformity of Amorphous Ices” is published in Physical Review Letters
“Can exotic disordered ‘‘stealthy’’ particle configurations tolerate arbitrarily large holes?” is published in Soft Matter Categories News Author chmadmin Read the full paper: here The probability of finding a spherical cavity or “hole” of arbitrarily large size in typical disordered many-particle systems in the infinite-system-size limit (e.g., equilibrium liquid states) is non-zero. Such “hole” statistics are intimately linked to the thermodynamic and nonequilibrium physical properties of the system. Disordered “stealthy” many-particle configurations in d-dimensional … Continue Reading “Can exotic disordered ‘‘stealthy’’ particle configurations tolerate arbitrarily large holes?” is published in Soft Matter
