Constitutive tensors are of common use in mechanics of materials. To determine the relevant symmetry class of an experimental tensor is still a tedious problem. For instance, it requires numerical methods in three-dimensional elasticity. We…

We present an approach to the coupling of mixed-dimensional continua by employing the mathematically enriched linear Cosserat micropolar model. The kinematical reduction of the model to lower dimensional domains leaves its fundamental…

We summarize some recent results of the authors and their collaborators, regarding the derivation of thin elastic shell models (for shells with mid-surface of arbitrary geometry) from the variational theory of 3d nonlinear elasticity. We…

This paper presents a pure complementary energy variational method for solving anti-plane shear problem in finite elasticity. Based on the canonical duality-triality theory developed by the author, the nonlinear/nonconex partial…

In this paper we do a comparative presentation of the linear isotropic Cosserat elastic model from two perspectives: the classical Mindlin-Eringen-Nowacki description in terms of a microrotation vector and a new formulation in terms of a…

Using discrete simulations, we investigate the behavior of a model granular material within an annular shear cell. Specifically, two-dimensional assemblies of disks are placed between two circular walls, the inner one rotating with…

This paper concerns anisotropic two-dimensional and planar elasticity models within the frameworks of classical linear elasticity and the bond-based peridynamic theory of solid mechanics. We begin by reviewing corresponding models from the…

Starting from a three-dimensional model based on the Ciarlet-Geymonat energy, we derive nonlinear shell models within the classical elasticity theory of compressible isotropic materials. The Neo-Hookean term involving the norm of the…

In this paper we linearise the recently introduced geometrically nonlinear constrained Cosserat-shell model. In the framework of the linear constrained Cosserat-shell model, we provide a comparison of our linear models with the classical…

There has been significant recent interest in the mechanics community to design structures that can either violate reciprocity, or exhibit elastic asymmetry or odd elasticity. While these properties are highly desirable to enable mechanical…

We present a geometric formulation of classical Cosserat elasticity in which the coframe and rotational connection are treated as independent variational fields. In contrast to conventional metric-based approaches, this formulation makes…

Achieving intrinsic optical chirality requires breaking all mirror symmetries of an object, and maximum chirality, which allows interaction with only one helicity of light, is particularly promising for applications such as chiral sensing,…

Using a generalization of vector calculus for space with non-integer dimension, we consider elastic properties of fractal materials. Fractal materials are described by continuum models with non-integer dimensional space. A generalization of…

In this paper we derive the linear elastic Cosserat shell model incorporating effects up to order $O(h^5)$ in the shell thickness $h$ as a particular case of the recently introduced geometrically nonlinear elastic Cosserat shell model. The…

The development of a nonlinear structural theory (model) for isotropic linear-elastic finite continua is the main objective of the study. To derive the theory, we used Taylor's multivariable expansion and Bubnov-Galerkin's weak formulation.…

We reconsider the geometrically nonlinear Cosserat model for a uniformly convex elastic energy and write the equilibrium problem as a minimization problem. Applying the direct methods of the calculus of variations we show the existence of…

We derive the chiral kinetic theory in a non-Abelian gauge field using a self-consistent semiclassical expansion. Within this new expansion scheme, we disentangle the Wigner equations up to second order and demonstrate that they do not…

Almost all available results in elasticity on curved topographies are obtained within either a small curvature expansion or an empirical covariant generalization that accounts for screening between Gaussian curvature and disclinations. In…

Problems of flexible mechanical metamaterials, and highly deformable porous solids in general, are rich and complex due to nonlinear mechanics and nontrivial geometrical effects. While numeric approaches are successful, analytic tools and…

We are concerned with underlying connections between fluids, elasticity, isometric embedding of Riemannian manifolds, and the existence of wrinkled solutions of the associated nonlinear partial differential equations. In this paper, we…
