The set $GU_f$ of possible effective elastic tensors of composites built from two materials with positive definite elasticity tensors $\BC_1$ and $\BC_2=\Gd\BC_0$ comprising the set $U=\{\BC_1,\Gd\BC_0\}$ and mixed in proportions $f$ and…
We show that any pair of real symmetric tensors $\BGve$ and $\BGm$ can be realized as the effective electric permittivity and effective magnetic permeability of a metamaterial at a given fixed frequency. The construction starts with two…
The paper establishes exact lower bound on the effective elastic energy of two-dimensional, three-material composite subjected to the homogeneous, anisotropic stress. It is assumed that the materials are mixed with given volume fractions…
One of the essential questions in the area of granular matter is, how to obtain macroscopic tensorial quantities like stress and strain from ``microscopic'' quantities like the contact forces in a granular assembly. Different averaging…
For a composite containing one isotropic elastic material, with positive Lame moduli, and void, with the elastic material occupying a prescribed volume fraction $f$, and with the composite being subject to an average stress, ${{…
A soft solid is said to be initially stressed if it is subjected to a state of internal stress in its unloaded reference configuration. Developing a sound mathematical framework to model initially stressed solids in nonlinear elasticity is…
New low-order $H(\textrm{div})$-conforming finite elements for symmetric tensors are constructed in arbitrary dimension. The space of shape functions is defined by enriching the symmetric quadratic polynomial space with the $(d+1)$-order…
A family of mixed finite elements is proposed for solving the first order system of linear elasticity equations in any space dimension, where the stress field is approximated by symmetric finite element tensors. This family of elements has…
We consider mechanics of composite materials in which thin inclusions are modeled by lower-dimensional manifolds. By successively applying the dimensional reduction to junctions and intersections within the material, a geometry of…
We present a novel approach to understand geometric-incompatibility-induced rigidity in under-constrained materials, including sub-isostatic 2D spring networks and 2D and 3D vertex models for dense biological tissues. We show that in all…
The main result of this work is a homogenization theorem via variational convergence for elastic materials with stiff checkerboard-type heterogeneities under the assumptions of physical growth and non-self-interpenetration. While the…
The present work provides a profound analytical and numerical analysis of the material properties of SFRC on the mesoscale as well as the resulting correlation structure taking into account the probabilistic characteristics of the fiber…
This paper presents a nonconforming finite element approximation of the space of symmetric tensors with square integrable divergence, on tetrahedral meshes. Used for stress approximation together with the full space of piecewise linear…
This work proposes the complete design cycle for several auxetic materials where the cycle consists of three steps (i) the design of the micro-architecture, (ii) the manufacturing of the material and (iii) the testing of the material. We…
The lowest order nonconforming rectangular element in three dimensions involves 54 degrees of freedom for the stress and 12 degrees of freedom for the displacement. With a modest increase in the number of degrees of freedom (24 for the…
We propose two classes of mixed finite elements for linear elasticity of any order, with interior penalty for nonconforming symmetric stress approximation. One key point of our method is to introduce some appropriate nonconforming…
We show that microstructures built from non-magnetic conducting sheets exhibit an effective magnetic permeability, /mu_meff, which can be tuned to values not accessible in naturally occurring materials, including large imaginary components…
The tubal tensor framework provides a clean and effective algebraic setting for tensor computations, supporting matrix-mimetic features like Singular Value Decomposition and Eckart-Young-like optimality results. Underlying the tubal tensor…
We present new rectangular mixed finite elements for linear elasticity. The approach is based on a modification of the Hellinger-Reissner functional in which the symmetry of the stress field is enforced weakly through the introduction of a…
In this paper, we propose and analyze the least squares finite element methods for the linear elasticity interface problem in the stress-displacement system on unfitted meshes. We consider the cases that the interface is $C^2$ or polygonal,…
