Plane-polarised finite-amplitude shear waves in deformed incompressible materials
(SAGE Publications, 2022-04-07)We investigate how two finite-amplitude, transverse, plane body waves may be superposed to propagate in a deformed hyperelastic incompressible solid. We find that the equations of motion reduce to a well-determined system ... -
Programmable wrinkling for functionally-graded auxetic circular membranes
(Elsevier, 2023-07-13)Materials with negative Poisson¿s ratio, also known as auxetic materials, display exotic properties such as expansion in all directions under uni-axial tension. For their unique properties, these materials find a broad ... -
Pulsed electric field ablation of epicardial autonomic ganglia: Computer analysis of monopolar electric field across the tissues involved
(MDPI, 2022-11-27)Background and objectives: Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) ablation has been proposed as a non-thermal energy to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) by epicardial ablation of ganglionated plexi (GP), which are embedded within ... -
Representing the stress and strain energy of elastic solids with initial stress and transverse texture anisotropy.
(The Royal Society, 2022-10-12)Real-world solids, such as rocks, soft tissues and engineering materials, are often under some form of stress. Most real materials are also, to some degree, anisotropic due to their microstructure, a characteristic often ... -
Singular travelling waves in soft viscoelastic solids of rate type
(Elsevier, 2023-09-25)We consider shear wave propagation in soft viscoelastic solids of rate type. Based on objective stress rates, the constitutive model accounts for finite strain, incompressibility, as well as stress- and strain-rate ... -
Stochastic modelling of pesticide transport to drinking water sources via runoff and resulting human health risk assessment
(Elsevier, 2024-02-09)A modelling framework was developed to facilitate a probabilistic assessment of health risks posed by pesticide exposure via drinking water due to runoff, with the inclusion of influential site conditions and in-stream ... -
Tunable buckling configurations via in-plane periodicity in soft 3D-fiber composites: Simulations and experiments
(Elsevier, 2022-05-24)We study the buckling of soft 3D-fiber composites (FCs) with varying in-plane microstructure periodicity. Through our experiments and simulations, we find that the out-of-plane buckling orientation of fibers is determined ... -
Voltage-controlled topological interface states for bending waves in soft dielectric phononic crystal plates
(Elsevier, 2022-11-19)The operating frequency range of passive topological phononic crystals is generally fixed and narrow, limiting their practical applications. To overcome this difficulty, here we design and investigate a one-dimensional ...
