Condensed Matter Seminar: "Acoustics in granular materials: from the particle scale to force networks"
Karen Daniels , North Carolina State
Granular materials are inherently heterogeneous, and continuum models of properties such as the shear modulus and sound speed often fail. One promising alternative is to build an understanding of…

Condensed Matter seminar: “Polyhedral Crystalline Membranes”
Monica Olvera de la Cruz , Northwestern University
Polyhedral geometries have beguiled scientists and mathematicians for millennia. In recent times polyhedral shapes have been identified at the microscopic level in crystalline shells such as fullerenes, viral…
