    • Actively controllable topological phase transition in phononic beam systems 

      Zhou, Weijian; Chen, Weiqiu; Destrade, Michel; Lim, C.W. (Elsevier, 2020-05-01)
      Topological insulators, which allow edge or interface waves but forbid bulk waves, have revolutionized our scientific cognition of acoustic/elastic systems. Due to their nontrivial topological characteristics, edge (interface) ...
    • Electro-mechanically guided growth and patterns 

      Du, Yangkun; Su, Yipin; Lü, Chaofeng; Chen, Weiqiu; Destrade, Michel (Elsevier, 2020-07-01)
      Several experiments have demonstrated the existence of an electro-mechanical effect in many biological tissues and hydrogels, and its actual influence on growth, migration, and pattern formation. Here, to model these ...
    • Rivlin's legacy in continuum mechanics and applied mathematics 

      Destrade, Michel; Murphy, Jeremiah; Saccomandi, Giuseppe (The Royal Society, 2019-03-18)
      Over a long and distinguished career, Ronald Rivlin (figure 1) published more than 200 scientific papers. He was a highly innovative scientist who made seminal contributions in all areas of continuum mechanics. He was one ...
