The dynamic impedance of a sphere oscillating in an elastic medium is considered. Oestreicher's formula for the impedance of a sphere bonded to the surrounding medium can be expressed simply in terms of three lumped impedances associated…

This contribution investigates the extension of the microplane formulation to the description of transversely isotropic materials such as shale rock, foams, unidirectional composites, and ceramics. Two possible approaches are considered: 1)…

We address Euler's equations for irrotational gravity waves in an infinitely deep fluid rewritten in conformal variables. Stokes waves are traveling waves with the smooth periodic profile. In agreement with the previous numerical results,…

We study low Reynolds number turbulence in a suspension of polar, extensile, self-propelled inertial swimmers. We review the bend and splay mechanisms that destabilize an ordered flock. The suspension is always unstable to bend…

A lattice of elastic Rayleigh rods organized in a parallelepiped geometry can be axially loaded up to an arbitrary amount without distortion and then be subject to incremental time-harmonic dynamic motion. At certain threshold levels of…

We study a three-dimensional dynamical system in two slow variables and one fast variable. We analyze the tangency of the unstable manifold of an equilibrium point with "the" repelling slow manifold, in the presence of a stable periodic…

The slow passage through a Hopf bifurcation leads to the delayed appearance of large amplitude oscillations. We construct a smooth scalar feedback control which suppresses the delay and causes the system to follow a stable equilibrium…

Over the past few decades, oscillating flexible foils have been used to study the physics of organismal propulsion in different fluid environments. Here we extend this work to a study of flexible foils in a frictional environment. When the…

The purpose of this paper is to advance the knowledge of the dynamics arising from the creation and subsequent bifurcation of Poincar\'e heteroclinic cycles. The problem is central to dynamics: it has to be addressed if, for instance, one…

We consider the steady-state fingering instability of an elastic membrane separating two fluids of different density under external pressure in a rotating Hele-Shaw cell. Both inextensible and highly extensible membranes are considered, and…

A study was made of the instability that arises when acoustic and gravity waves propagate in an inhomogeneous medium which is characterized by oscillatory approach of the reaction coordinates to the steady state. It is shown that loss of…

Actuating periodically an elastic filament in a viscous liquid generally breaks the constraints of Purcell's scallop theorem, resulting in the generation of a net propulsive force. This observation suggests a method to design simple…

It is shown that a channel flow of a dilute polymer solution between two widely spaced cylinders hindering the flow is an important paradigm of an unbounded flow in the case in which the channel wall is located sufficiently far from the…

We investigate theoretically and numerically the impact of an elastic sphere on a rigid wall in a viscous fluid. Our focus is on the dynamics of the contact, employing the soft lubrication model in which the sphere is separated from the…

We investigate the non-linear dynamics of a two-dimensional film flowing down a finite heater, for a non-volatile and a volatile liquid. An oscillatory instability is predicted beyond a critical value of Marangoni number using linear…

A new analysis of elastic properties of dense hard sphere (HS) fluids is presented, based on the expressions derived by Miller [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 50}, 2733 (1969)]. Important consequences for HS fluids in terms of sound waves propagation,…

The tippedisk is a mathematical-mechanical archetype for a peculiar friction-induced instability phenomenon leading to the inversion of an unbalanced spinning disk, being reminiscent to (but different from) the well-known inversion of the…

Bifurcations associated with stability of the saddle fixed point of the Poincar\'{e} map, arising from the unstable equilibrium point of the potential, are investigated in a forced Duffing oscillator with a double-well potential. One…

We derive a continuum-level plasticity model for polycrystalline materials in the high energy density regime, based on a single dislocation density and single mobility mechanism, with an evolution model for the dislocation density. The…

We investigated self-sustained oscillation in a collapsible channel, in which a part of one rigid wall is replaced by a thin elastic wall, and synchronization phenomena in the two channels connected in parallel. We performed a…
