Quenched Stresses And Linear Elastic Response Of Random Packings Of Frictionless Particles Near Jamming

We study stress correlations and elastic response in large-scale computer simulations of particle packings near jamming. We show that there are characteristic lengths in both the stresses and elastic response that diverge in similar ways as the confining pressure approaches zero from above. For the...
