Nonlinear elastic vector solitons in hard-magnetic soft mechanical metamaterials
(Elsevier, 2023-07-14)
We propose a design of a metamaterial for magnetically tunable propagation of nonlinear vector solitary waves. The metamaterial consists of a periodic array of units of hard-magnetic inclusion embedded in a soft matrix. ...
Towards understanding the role of viscoelasticity in microstructural buckling in soft particulate composites
(Elsevier, 2023)
This work investigates the interplay between viscoelasticity and instabilities in soft particulate composites undergoing finite deformation. The composite is subjected to in-plane deformation at various constant strain ...
Magnetic field-induced asymmetric mechanical metamaterials
(Elsevier, 2023)
We propose a magnetic field-induced asymmetric mechanical metamaterial. The tunable metamaterial integrates hard-Magnetic Active Elastomers (hMAEs) into the microstructural design combining snap-through, bi-stability, and ...
Post-buckling development in soft particulate composites
(Elsevier, 2023-07-26)
In this paper, we investigate the post-buckling development of instability-induced patterns in soft particulate composites. Upon reaching the critical strain level, the composite experiences microstructural buckling. ...
