All these disordered materials display a nonlinear flow behavior in response to external mechanical forces, due to the existence of a finite force threshold for flow to occur: the yield stress. We discuss both the physical origin and rheological consequences associated with this nonlinear behavior, and give an overview of experimental techniques available to measure the yield stress. We discuss recent progress concerning a microscopic theoretical description of the flow dynamics of yield stress materials, emphasizing in particular the role played by relaxation time scales, the interplay between shear flow and aging behavior, the existence of inhomogeneous shear flows and shear bands, wall slip, and non-local effects in confined geometries. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-01589027/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-01589027/file/1502.05281.pdf %L hal-01589027 %U https://hal.science/hal-01589027 %~ ENS-LYON %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-LYON1 %~ CRPP %~ L2C %~ INC-CNRS %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UDL %~ UNIV-LYON %~ UM-2015-2021
