The storage and loss moduli for jammed soft particles are studied computationally for a variety of interparticle potentials and volume fractions. The qualitative behavior of the storage modulus is independent of the nature of the interparticle potential. The frequency dependence of the storage modulus computed in the simulations is described by a universal logistic formula exhibiting two plateaus at low and high frequencies. While the high frequency modulus G follows the prediction of the Mountain-Zwanzig expression, which depends on the pair distribution function and pairwise interparticle potential, no such formula exists for the low frequency modulus 0
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
