Solitary and compact-like shear waves in the bulk of solids [PDF]

, 2006
We show that a model proposed by Rubin, Rosenau, and Gottlieb [J. Appl. Phys. 77 (1995) 4054], for dispersion caused by an inherent material characteristic length, belongs to the class of simple materials. Therefore, it is possible to generalize the idea

The Mechanics of Spacetime - A Solid Mechanics Perspective on the Theory of General Relativity

, 2018
We present an elastic constitutive model of gravity where we identify physical space with the mid-hypersurface of an elastic hyperplate called the "cosmic fabric" and spacetime with the fabric's world volume.

Acoustic Probing of the Jamming Transition in an Unconsolidated Granular Medium [PDF]

, 2008
Experiments with acoustic waves guided along the mechanically free surface of an unconsolidated granular packed structure provide information on the elasticity of granular media at very low pressures that are naturally controlled by the gravitational ...

Green's function method for dynamic contact calculations.

Physical Review E, 2021
Resolving atomic scale details while capturing long-range elastic deformation is the principal difficulty when solving contact mechanics problems with computer simulations.

Nondestructive characterization of the elastic properties of orthotropic composites with ultrasound [PDF]

, 2011
Due to the increasing use of composite materials in critical applications demanding light weight to high strength ratio, reliable evaluation tools are necessary.

The linear instability of the stratified plane Couette flow

, 2017
We present the stability analysis of a plane Couette flow which is stably stratified in the vertical direction orthogonally to the horizontal shear. Interest in such a flow comes from geophysical and astrophysical applications where background shear and ...

Monte Carlo Methods for Estimating Interfacial Free Energies and Line Tensions [PDF]

, 2011
Excess contributions to the free energy due to interfaces occur for many problems encountered in the statistical physics of condensed matter when coexistence between different phases is possible (e.g. wetting phenomena, nucleation, crystal growth, etc.).

Experimental and numerical polar scans of several anisotropic materials using pulsed and harmonic ultrasonic beams [PDF]

, 2011
Ultrasonic non-destructive testing is a well known technique in present days, in which the C-scan is the most wide spread. Though, because of the inherent limitations of most methods to quantitatively characterize (damaged) composite materials, the quest

Waves and instabilities in rotating free surface flows [PDF]

, 2013
The stability properties of the rotating free surface flow in a cylindrical container is studied using a global stability approach, considering succesively three models. For the case of solid body rotation (Newton’s bucket), all eigenmodes are found to be
