It is important to understand that, although differences do exist between the properties of amorphous and crystalline solids, it is nevertheless broadly true that amorphous solids exhibit essentially the full range of properties and phenomena exhibited by crystalline solids.

In amorphous solids, the atoms and molecules are distributed randomly throughout the solid. ... In either case, it is the electrical bonds between the different atoms and molecules that hold the solids (and to some extent, liquids) together.

This study clarifies the flow properties of amorphous solids and should help improve modeling of these complex phenomena. The collective nature identified in the flow differs from usual proposed descriptions.

Addressing the widespread misconception according to which glass is a liquid. ... The structure of vitreous and amorphous solids is based on short-range order. This has now become established beyond doubt. The bonding properties of atoms lead to the formation of defined subassemblies with a certain symmetry.
