Systems of particles interacting via short-ranged repulsive forces are characterized by a jamming transition from a flowing to a disordered solid state, whose understanding is of great theoretical and practical relevance. The jamming phase diagram introduced by Liu and Nagel in 1998 provided a conceptual picture from which to investigate this transition, suggesting that the shear stress might play a role analogous to that of temperature in the jamming phenomenology. Here we highlight recent works which suggest qualitative changes in the shape of the diagram.

Abstract
Systems of particles interacting via short-ranged repulsive forces are characterized by a jamming transition from a flowing to a disordered solid state, whose understanding is of great theoretical and practical relevance. The jamming phase diagram introduced by Liu and Nagel in 1998 provided a conceptual picture from which to investigate this transition, suggesting that the shear stress might play a role analogous to that of temperature in the jamming phenomenology. Here we highlight recent works which suggest qualitative changes in the shape of the diagram.File in questo prodotto:
