We prove conditional weak-strong uniqueness of the potential Euler solution for external flow around a smooth body in three space dimensions, within the class of viscosity weak solutions with the same initial data. Our sufficient condition…
The linear (Winkler) foundation is a simple model widely used for decades to account for the surface response of elastic bodies. It models the response as purely local, linear, and perpendicular to the surface. We extend this model to the…

We consider two-parameter bifurcation of equilibrium states of an elastic rod on a deformable foundation. Our main theorem shows that bifurcation occurs if and only if the linearization of our problem has nontrivial solutions. In fact our…
We study a system of partial differential equations with integer and fractional derivatives arising in the study of forced oscillatory motion of a viscoelastic rod. We propose a new approach considering a quotient of relations appearing in…
We present a model to study Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of the composite material of amorphous nanowires. It is an extension of the model derived by two of us [Da Fonseca and Galvao, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 175502 (2004)] to study the…

The compressible barotropic Navier-Stokes type system in monodimensional case with Neumann boundary condition given on free boundary is considered. The local and the global existence with uniformly boundedness for small viscosity…
In this paper, we study a hyperbolic version of the Navier-Stokes equations, obtained by using the approximation by relaxation of the Euler system, evolving in a thin strip domain. The formal limit of these equations is a hyperbolic Prandtl…
The hitherto controversial proposition that a ``wiggly" Goto-Nambu cosmic string can be effectively represented by an elastic string model of exactly transonic type (with energy density $U$ inversely proportional to its tension $T$) is…
We study the motion of a ferromagnetic helical nanostructure under the action of a rotating magnetic field. A variety of dynamical configurations were observed that depended strongly on the direction of magnetization and the geometrical…
We study the steady-state motion of mode III cracks propagating on a lattice exhibiting viscoelastic dynamics. The introduction of a Kelvin viscosity $\eta$ allows for a direct comparison between lattice results and continuum treatments.…
We propose a modeling framework for finite viscoelasticity, inspired by the kinematic assumption made by Green and Naghdi in plasticity. This approach fundamentally differs from the widely used multiplicative decomposition of the…
Kirchhoff's kinetic analogy relates the deformation of an incompressible elastic rod to the classical dynamics of rigid body rotation. We extend the analogy to compressible filaments and find that the extension is similar to the…
Dangling edge spins of two-dimensional quantum critical antiferromagnets display strongly enhanced spin correlations with scaling dimensions that fall outside of the classical theory of surface critical phenomena. We provide large-scale…
