Most three dimensional constitutive relations that have been developed to describe the behavior of bodies are correlated against one dimensional and two dimensional experiments. What is usually lost sight of is the fact that infinity of…

Thermal metamaterial represents a groundbreaking approach to control heat conduction, and, as a crucial component, thermal invisibility is of utmost importance for heat management. Despite the flourishing development of thermal invisibility…
To begin with, we identify the equations of elastostatics in a Riemannian manifold, which generalize those of classical elasticity in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. Our approach relies on the principle of least energy, which asserts…
Using a Green's function approach, we investigate band structure effects in the BEEM current distribution in reciprocal space. In the elastic limit, this formalism provides a 'parameter free' solution to the BEEM problem. At low…
Computational studies of the thermodynamic properties of materials at the mesoscopic and macroscopic scales -- involving lengths and times of at least $\mu$m and $\mu$s, respectively -- rely on a coarse-graining approximation such that only…

The invariance under co-ordinate transformations of a set of partial differential equations can lead to the possibility of invisibility cloaking, whereby an anomaly in the interior of a body is shielded from an external observer. The form…
The virtual element method (VEM) allows discretization of elasticity and plasticity problems with polygons in 2D and polyhedrals in 3D. The polygons (and polyhedrals) can have an arbitrary number of sides and can be concave or convex. These…
Under steady shear, a foam relaxes stress through intermittent rearrangements of bubbles accompanied by sudden drops in the stored elastic energy. We use a simple model of foam that incorporates both elasticity and dissipation to study the…
