Scaling regimes and fluctuations of observables in computer glasses approaching the unjamming transition

Abstract

This dataset can be used to reproduce the figures in the corresponding manuscript, in preparation for publication in the Journal of Chemical Physics. As described in the manuscript, the (mostly statistical) quantities presented here were computed from ensembles of simulated disordered solids (harmonic sphere packings, diluted spring networks, and packing derived networks). The individual simulations involve the minimization of the system's energy which is computed from positional degrees of freedom (of particles in a packing or nodes in a network). Macroscopic quantities (such as shear modulus or contact number/excess connectivity) are then computed for each sample. The displacement response feilds are computed by solving a linear matrix equation involving the Hessian of 2D packings of harmonic spheres. See the manuscript for more details.
