This work is concerned with an inverse elastic scattering problem of identifying the unknown rigid obstacle embedded in an open space filled with a homogeneous and isotropic elastic medium. A Newton-type iteration method relying on the…
This monograph introduces key concepts and problems in the new research area of Periodic Geometry and Topology for materials applications.Periodic structures such as solid crystalline materials or textiles were previously classified in…
Exact solutions are derived for the problem of a two-dimensional, infinitely anisotropic, linear-elastic medium containing a periodic lattice of voids. The matrix material possesses either one infinitely soft, or one infinitely hard loading…
We introduce a novel formulation for the evolution of parametric curves by anisotropic curve shortening flow in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\geq2$. The reformulation hinges on a suitable manipulation of the parameterization's tangential velocity,…
Congruences, or $2$-parameter families of lines in $3$-space are of interest in many situations, in particular in geometric optics. In this paper we consider elements of their geometry which are invariant under affine changes of…
We present a characterisation of blenders based on mapping properties of certain sets of curves that can be rigorously verified by computer-assisted methods. We develop an algorithm to construct these sets of curves that requires only a…
Elliptic curves are planar curves which can be used to define an abelian group. The efficient computation of discrete logarithms over this group is a longstanding problem relevant to cryptography. It may be possible to efficiently compute…
In this paper, we introduce a multiscale framework based on adaptive edge basis functions to solve second-order linear elliptic PDEs with rough coefficients. One of the main results is that we prove the proposed multiscale method achieves…
We consider a non-uniformly elliptic second-order differential operator with periodic coefficients that models composite media consisting of highly anisotropic cylindrical fibres periodically distributed in an isotropic background. The…
The 3D compressible and incompressible Euler equations with a physical vacuum free boundary condition and affine initial conditions reduce to a globally solvable Hamiltonian system of ordinary differential equations for the deformation…
Shape is an important physical property of natural and manmade 3D objects that characterizes their external appearances. Understanding differences between shapes and modeling the variability within and across shape classes, hereinafter…
It is a major unsolved problem as to whether unknot recognition - that is, testing whether a given closed loop in R^3 can be untangled to form a plain circle - has a polynomial time algorithm. In practice, trivial knots (which can be…
We establish improved convergence rates for curved boundary element methods applied to the three-dimensional (3D) Laplace and Helmholtz equations with smooth geometry and data. Our analysis relies on a precise analysis of the consistency…
Recently, shearlet systems were introduced as a means to derive efficient encoding methodologies for anisotropic features in 2-dimensional data with a unified treatment of the continuum and digital setting. However, only very few…
In this paper, generalizing the techniques of Bour's theorem, we prove that every generic cuspidal edge, more generally, generic $n$-type edge, which is invariant under a helicoidal motion in Euclidean $3$-space admits non-trivial isometric…
We study equilibrium configurations of non-Euclidean plates, in which the reference metric is uniaxially periodic. This work is motivated by recent experiments on thin sheets of composite thermally responsive gels [1]. Such sheets bend…
A simple approach is presented to study the asymptotic behavior of some algorithms with an underlying tree structure. It is shown that some asymptotic oscillating behaviors can be precisely analyzed without resorting to complex analysis…
Some remarkable generic properties, related to isostaticity and potential energy minimization, of equilibrium configurations of assemblies of rigid, frictionless grains are studied. Isostaticity -the uniqueness of the forces, once the list…
The present paper aims at representing an improvement of the result in [2], where a strong unique continuation property and a description of the local behaviour around the edge of a crack for solutions to an elliptic problem are…
This work introduces an Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) strategy for the topology optimization of structures made of discrete geometric components using the geometry projection method. Practical structures made of geometric shapes such as…
