We review thixotropy, its attributes, and accompanying rheological phenomena, such as
yielding, hysteresis in shear-rate ramps, the influence of rest time and viscosity bifurcation …

The deformation and flow of disordered solids, such as metallic glasses and concentrated
emulsions, involves swift localized rearrangements of particles that induce a long-range …

Protein condensates are complex fluids that can change their material properties with time.
However, an appropriate rheological description of these fluids remains missing. We …

A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in
soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal …

Even in simple geometries, many complex fluids display nontrivial flow fields, with regions
where shear is concentrated. The possibility for such shear banding has been known for …

The development of new glassy materials is key for addressing major global challenges in
energy, medicine, and advanced communications systems. For example, thin, flexible, and …

We review the recent literature on the simulation of the structure and deformation of
amorphous solids, including oxide and metallic glasses. We consider simulations at different …

We perform molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the effect of a glass preparation
on its yielding transition under oscillatory shear. We use swap Monte Carlo to investigate a …

Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays
and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical …

Materials such as foams, concentrated emulsions, dense suspensions or colloidal gels, are
yield stress fluids. Their steady flow behavior, characterized by standard rheometric …
