Critical behavior of density-driven and shear-driven reversible–irreversible transitions in cyclically sheared vortices

Abstract Random assemblies of particles subjected to cyclic shear undergo a reversible–irreversible transition (RIT) with increasing a shear amplitude d or particle density n, while the latter type of RIT has not been verified experimentally. Here, we measure the time-dependent velocity of cyclicall...
