Abstract

Glasses have liquid-like structure, but exhibit solid-like properties. A central question concerns the relation between the structure and mechanical properties of glasses, but structural changes remain difficult to resolve. We use a novel combination of rheology and x-ray scattering to resolve structural changes in colloidal glasses and link them directly to their mechanical behavior. By combining stress and structure factor measurements, we resolve shear induced changes in the nearest neighbor configuration as a function of applied stress, allowing us to elucidate the structural origin of the genuine shear banding transition of glasses.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 23. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 April 2013.
All research outputs
#1,406,766
of 22,705,019 outputs
Outputs from Scientific Reports
#13,468
of 122,340 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#11,928
of 199,331 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Scientific Reports
#60
of 475 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,705,019 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 122,340 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 18.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 199,331 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 475 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
