Nonlinear Elasticity, Fluctuations and Heterogeneity of Nematic Elastomers

open access: yes, 2007
Liquid crystal elastomers realize a fascinating new form of soft matter that is a composite of a conventional crosslinked polymer gel (rubber) and a liquid crystal. These {\em solid} liquid crystal amalgams, quite similarly to their (conventional, fluid)

On Temporal Behaviour of Solutions in Thermoelasticity of Porous Micropolar Bodies

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2014
We consider a porous thermoelastic body, including voidage time derivative among the independent constitutive variables. For the initial boundary value problem of such materials, we analyze the temporal behaviour of the solutions.

Existence theorems in the geometrically non-linear 6-parametric theory of elastic plates

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we show the existence of global minimizers for the geometrically exact, non-linear equations of elastic plates, in the framework of the general 6-parametric shell theory.

Triple- Diffusive Convection in a Micropolar Ferrofluid in the Presence of Rotation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2013
This paper deals with the theoretical investigation of the triple-diffusive convection in a micropolar ferrofluid layer heated and soluted below subjected to a transverse uniform magnetic field in the presence of uniform vertical rotation.

Optimum design of lattice structures based on continuum expression using micropolar continuum theory

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
We construct a structural optimization method targeting lattice structures composed of a sufficiently large array of unit cells where each unit cell consists of several beam elements, with the aim of maximizing the stiffness of the entire structure under

Gibbs–Appell Equations in Finite Element Analysis of Mechanical Systems with Elements Having Micro-Structure and Voids

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, the authors propose the application of the Gibbs–Appell equations to obtain the equations of motion in the case of a mechanical system that has elements with a micro-polar structure, containing voids.

Micropolar Fluid Poro-Elastic Squeeze Film Lubrication between a Cylinder and a Rough Flat Plate — A Special Reference to Synovial Joint Lubrication

open access: yesTribology Online, 2014
In the present paper the effect of micropolar squeeze film lubrication between a cylinder and a poroelastic flat plate is presented. The synovial fluid is modeled as the micropolar fluid and the articular cartilage is considered to be a poroelastic in ...
