Comparison of compression versus shearing near jamming, for a simple model of athermal frictionless disks in suspension

Comparison of compression versus shearing near jamming, for a simple model of athermal frictionless disks in suspension

Using a simplified model for a non-Brownian suspension, we numerically study the response of athermal, overdamped, frictionless disks in two dimensions to isotropic and uniaxial compression, as well as to pure and simple shearing, all at finite constant strain rates ε[over ̇]. We show that isotropic and uniaxial compression result …
