Performance of periodic piezoelectric composite arrays incorporating a passive phase exhibiting anisotropic properties [PDF]
, 2005 This paper explores the minimisation of interelement cross talk in 1-D and 2-D periodic composite array structures through the incorporation of a passive phase exhibiting anisotropic elastic properties.

Entropy change-induced elastic softening of lithiated materials
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2015 To understand the “elastic softening” of Li–Si alloys for the development of Li-ion batteries, the effect of stress-induced change of entropy on the mechanical properties of lithiated materials is examined within the theories of thermodynamics and linear

Elastic Energy, Fluctuations and Temperature for Granular Materials
, 2003 We probe, using a model system, elastic and kinetic energies for sheared granular materials. For large enough $P/E_y$ (pressure/Young's modulus) and $P/\rho v^2$ ($P/$kinetic energy density) elastic dominates kinetic energy, and energy fluctuations ...

Discrete dislocation simulations and size dependent hardening in single slip [PDF]
, 1998 Plastic deformation in two-dimensional monophase and composite materials is studied using a discrete dislocation dynamics method. In this method, dislocations are represented by line defects in a linear elastic medium, and their interactions with ...

Homogenization method for elastic materials [PDF]
Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2007 In the paper we study the homogenization method and its potential for research of some phenomenons connected with periodic elastic materials. This method will be applied on partial differential equations that describe the deformation of a periodic ...

Elastic Deformation of Soft Coatings Due to Lubrication Forces
, 2017 Elastic deformation of rigid materials with soft coatings (stratified materials) due to lubrication forces can also alter the interpretation of dynamic surface forces measurements and prevent contact formation between approaching surfaces.

, 2002 Biological cells in soft materials can be modeled as anisotropic force contraction dipoles. The corresponding elastic interaction potentials are long-ranged ($\sim 1/r^3$ with distance $r$) and depend sensitively on elastic constants, geometry and ...
