A kinetic model for the elastoplastic dynamics of a jammed material is proposed, which takes the form of a nonlocal--Boltzmann-like--kinetic equation for the stress distribution function. Coarse graining this equation yields a nonlocal constitutive law for the flow, exhibiting as a key dynamic quant...
