Morphoelastic rods Part 1: A single growing elastic rod [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A theory for the dynamics and statics of growing elastic rods is presented. First, a single growing rod is considered and the formalism of three-dimensional multiplicative decomposition of morphoelasticity is used to describe the bulk growth of Kirchhoff

Semi-classical buckling of stiff polymers

open access: yes, 2007
A quantitative theory of the buckling of a worm like chain based on a semi-classical approximation of the partition function is presented. The contribution of thermal fluctuations to the force-extension relation that allows to go beyond the classical ...

Super‐Convergent Meshless Computations for Active Vibration Control of Bi‐Directional Functionally Graded Terfenol‐D Beams with Twisted Geometry

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study develops a superconvergent meshless method to analyze and control vibrations in twisted, bidirectional functionally graded Terfenol‐D beams. By optimizing magnetostrictive patch placement, it demonstrates effective vibration suppression under dynamic loads, highlighting the design potential of strategically graded materials in complex ...

Multifunctional and Reprogrammable Magnetoactive Graphene Oxide Origami

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
A magnetic graphene oxide film is developed that enables rapid, precise, and programmable shape morphing under magnetic actuation. The MGO sensoriactuators feature humidity‐tunable performance and integrated sensing–actuation capability. Customized origami structures can be easily created by simple cutting and folding, while reusable magnetic stickers ...

Dynamic Response of Spherically Curved Laminated Plate Subjected to Sudden Loading

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study investigated the dynamic response of simply supported spherical laminated composite plates with square vertices, composed of graphite/epoxy material, under sudden loading. The research examined the influence of stacking sequence, thickness variation, and type of loading using the finite element method (FEM).
