Abstract:Recently, researches have revealed that the granular jamming and glass-transition of amorphous matter, which seems to be out of the picture, may be intimately related to each other due to the strong analogies between these two systems. The progresses on the characteristics of granular jamming and the descriptions of amorphous structure, and the connectivity between the granular jamming and glass-transition are presented and shown, and the potential scientific interests are introduced in this paper
