This powerful analogy has allowed the Bilby-Cottrell-Swinden model of a plastic crack to be extended directly to vortex generation in liquids. As a result, some important correspondences have been obtained between the various stages of flow in both fluids and solids.doi:10.1080/01418619008244784...
In the realm of glasses, atomistic simulations of glass-forming liquids also have shown that a peak appears in the inter-particle normal force near7,9 or, in one case, much below8 the glass transition temperature Tg and have suggested that the peak is related to the fragility3 of the ...
