Abstract: Jamming is a fundamental transition that governs the behavior of particulate media, including sand, foams and dense suspensions. Upon compression, such media change from freely flowing to a disordered, marginally stable solid that exhibits non-Hookean… read more here.

Abstract: Fundamental biological and biomimetic processes, from tissue morphogenesis to soft robotics, rely on the propagation of chemical and mechanical surface waves to signal and coordinate active force generation. The complex interplay between surface geometry and… read more here.
