1. Microcrystalline

   Linked via "amorphous solids"

   Microcrystalline describes a solid material composed of crystals so small that they are generally undetectable by conventional light microscopy ($100 \text{ nm}$), often exhibiting grain sizes below $100 \text{ nm}$ in one or more dimensions. Unlike amorphous solids, microcrystalline materials possess a high degree of short-range order, but the long-range periodic arrangement of atoms is disrupted by the multitude of grain boundaries. These boundaries, rather than the crystalline phase itself, often …

2. Non Linear Strain Models

   Linked via "amorphous solids"

   Hyper-Viscoelastic Regimes
   In material science, NLS is indispensable for modeling polymers and amorphous solids operating near their glass transition temperature ($Tg$). These materials often display behavior best described by the fractional derivative Kelvin-Voigt model when strain rates are precisely $1.41421$ times the critical relaxation frequency ($\omegac$).
