The three-dimensional axisymmetric Boussinesq problem of an isotropic half-space subjected to a concentrated normal quasi-static load is studied within the framework of linear dipolar gradient elasticity. Our main concern is to determine…

We deduce a 1D model of elastic planar rods starting from the F\"{o}ppl--von K\'{a}rm\'{a}n model of thin shells. Such model is enhanced by additional kinematical descriptors that keep explicit track of the compatibility condition requested…

We discuss optical chirality in different types of gyrotropic media. Our analysis is based on the formalism of nongeometric symmetries of Maxwell's equations in vacuum generalized to material media with given constituent relations. This…

The purpose of this paper is to extend the non-invasive global/local iterative coupling technique [15] to the case of large structures undergoing nonlinear time-dependent evolutions at all scales. It appears that, due to the use of legacy…

This paper presents a geometrically explicit formulation for Cosserat rods that unifies configuration-space and strain-based representations within a single modeling framework. The proposed method uses nodal configurations on the Lie group…

We numerically study the phase structure of two types of triangulated spherical surface models, which includes an in-plane shear energy in the Hamiltonian, and we found that the phase structure of the models is considerably influenced by…

Conventional linear optical activity effects are widely used for studying chiral materials. However, poor contrast and artifacts due to sample anisotropy limit the applicability of these methods. Here we demonstrate that nonlinear…

It is shown that the kinematic system describing planar non-steady motions of ideal fibre-reinforced fluids may be reduced to a single two-dimensional third-order partial differential equation in which time enters parametrically. A…

A high temperature expansion is employed to map some complex anisotropic nonhermitian three and four dimensional Ising models with algebraic long range interactions into a solvable two dimensional variant. We also address the dimensional…

Although the two-layer quasi-geostrophic equations (2QGE) are a simplified model for the dynamics of a stratified, wind-driven ocean, their numerical simulation is still plagued by the need for high resolution to capture the full spectrum…

The subject of this paper is the rigorous derivation of lower dimensional models for a nonlinearly elastic thin-walled beam whose cross-section is given by a thin tubular neighbourhood of a smooth curve. Denoting by h and {\delta}_h,…

Cutting-edge smart materials are transforming the domains of soft robotics, actuators, and sensors by harnessing diverse non-mechanical stimuli, such as electric and magnetic fields. Accurately modelling their physical behaviour…

A model is presented for the characterization of dissipative effects on highly nonlinear waves in one-dimensional dry granular media. The model includes three terms: Hertzian, viscoelastic, and a term proportional to the square of the…

The zero and first order Gamma-limit of vanishing internal length scale are studied for the mechanical energy of a shear problem in geometrically nonlinear Cosserat elasticity. The convergence of the minimizers is shown and the limit…

We use an elastic model to explore faceting of solid-wall vesicles with elastic heterogeneities. We show that faceting occurs in regions where the vesicle wall is softer, such as areas of reduced wall thicknesses or concentrated in…

In the context of integrable field theory with boundary, the integrable non-linear sigma models in two dimensions, for example, the $O(N)$, the principal chiral, the ${\rm CP}^{N-1}$ and the complex Grassmannian sigma models are discussed…

We discuss in this work the validity of the theoretical solution of the nonlinear Couette flow for a granular impurity obtained in a recent work [preprint arXiv:0802.0526], in the range of large inelasticity and shear rate. We show there is…

The gravitational clustering of collisionless particles in an expanding universe is modelled using some simple physical ideas. I show that it is possible to understand the nonlinear clustering in terms of three well defined regimes: (1)…

We present a geometrically exact nonlinear analysis of elastic in-plane beams in the context of finite but small strain theory. The formulation utilizes the full beam metric and obtains the complete analytic elastic constitutive model by…

We suggest an alternative mathematical model for the electron in which the dynamical variables are a coframe (field of orthonormal bases) and a density. The electron mass and external electromagnetic field are incorporated into our model by…
