    • Canceling the elastic Poynting effect with geometry 

      Destrade, Michel; Du, Y.; Blackwell, J.; Colgan, N.; Balbi, V. (American Physical Society, 2023-05-24)
      The Poynting effect is a paragon of nonlinear soft matter mechanics. It is the tendency (found in all incompressible, isotropic, hyperelastic solids) exhibited by a soft block to expand vertically when sheared horizontally. ...
    • A hyperbolic framework for shear sound beams in nonlinear solids 

      Berjamin, Harold; Destrade, Michel (Elsevier, 2021-09-14)
      In soft elastic solids, directional shear waves are in general governed by coupled nonlinear KZK-type equations for the two transverse velocity components, when both quadratic nonlinearity and cubic nonlinearity are taken ...
