    • Magnetic field-induced asymmetric mechanical metamaterials 

      Zhang, Quan; Cherkasov, Andrei V.; Arora, Nitesh; Hu, Gengkai; Rudykh, Stephan (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 ...

    • Mechanical instability tuning of a magnetorheological elastomer composite laminate 

      Chen, Vincent W.; Arora, Nitesh; Goshkoderia, Artemii; Willey, Carson L.; Turgut, Zafer; Buskohl, Philip R.; Rudykh, Stephan; Juhl, Abigail T. (Elsevier, 2022-12-28)
      Magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) can change their shape and properties when activated by an external magnetic field. The attractive tunable properties of this stimuli-responsive composite can be further amplified by ...

    • Nonlinear elastic vector solitons in hard-magnetic soft mechanical metamaterials 

      Zhang, Quan; Cherkasov, Andrei V.; Xie, Chen; Arora, Nitesh; Rudykh, Stephan (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. ...

    • Post-buckling development in soft particulate composites 

      Chen, Dean; Xiang, Yuhai; Arora, Nitesh; Yao, Qi; Li, Jian; Rudykh, Stephan (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. ...

    • Structural and material electro-mechanical instabilities in microstructured dielectric elastomer plates 

      Bahreman, Marzieh; Arora, Nitesh; Darijani, Hossein; Rudykh, Stephan (Elsevier, 2022-02-18)
      In this paper, we investigate the stability of microstructured dielectric elastomer (DE) plates under electro-mechanical finite deformations. We examine the influence of the DE composite microstructure parameters on the ...

    • Towards understanding the role of viscoelasticity in microstructural buckling in soft particulate composites 

      Xiang, Yuhai; Chen, Dean; Arora, Nitesh; Yao, Qi; Rudykh, Stephan (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 ...
