PRESTRESSED ELASTICITY OF AMORPHOUS SOLIDS

Prestressed elasticity of amorphous solids

Prestress in amorphous solids bears the memory of their formation and plays a profound role in patches their mechanical properties.Here we develop a set of mathematical tools to investigate mechanical response of prestressed systems, using stress rather than strain as the fundamental variable.This theory allows microscopic prestress to vary for the
