Finite Element Modelling and Simulation of the Hysteretic Behaviour of Single- and Bi-metal Cantilever Beams using a Modified Non-linear Beta-damping Model [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2021 This paper explores a novel non-linear hysteresis model obtained from the modification of the conventional Kelvin-Voigt model, to produce a non-viscous hysteretic behaviour that is closer to metal damping. Two case studies are carried out for a vibrating

Double bi-material cantilever structures for complex surface plasmon modulation
Optics Express, 2015 A complex modulation structure of surface plasmon polaritons using double bi-material cantilevers is proposed. It is shown with numerical analysis that the thermally controlled mechanical actuation of double bi-material cantilevers can modulate the amplitude and phase of surface plasmon polaritons across a full complex modulation range independently ...
