The coordinate transformation offers a remarkable way to design cloaks that can steer electromagnetic fields so as to prevent waves from penetrating into the {\em cloaked region} (denoted by $\Omega_0$, where the objects inside are…

This work presents a generalized Kirchhoff-Love shell theory that can explicitly capture fiber-induced anisotropy not only in stretching and out-of-plane bending, but also in in-plane bending. This setup is particularly suitable for…
