Nonaffine deformation and tunable yielding of colloidal assemblies at the air-water interface.
Silica nanoparticles trapped at the air-water interface form a 2D solid state with amorphous order. We propose a theoretical model to describe how this solid-like state deforms under a shear strain ramp up to and beyond a...
