Most materials exhibit positive Poisson's ratio (PR) values but special structures can also present negative and, even rarer, zero (or close to zero) PR. Null PR structures have received much attention due to their unusual properties and…
An anisotropic elastic material is referred to as exotic when, under specific loadings, its mechanical response exhibits a higher degree of symmetry than that prescribed by its intrinsic material symmetry. Such materials, which may be…
Poisson noise commonly occurs in images captured by photon-limited imaging systems such as in astronomy and medicine. As the distribution of Poisson noise depends on the pixel intensity value, noise levels vary from pixels to pixels. Hence,…

Incompressible nonlinearly hyperelastic materials are rarely simulated in Finite Element numerical experiments as being perfectly incompressible because of the numerical difficulties associated with globally satisfying this constraint. Most…
