The origin of compression influences geometric instabilities in bilayers [PDF]
, 2018 Geometric instabilities in bilayered structures control the surface morphology in a wide range of biological and technical systems. Depending on the application, different mechanisms induce compressive stresses in the bilayer.

Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Dynamic Modelling and Experimental Investigation of an Active–Passive Variable Stiffness Actuator
ActuatorsTo overcome the limitations imposed by the low flexible angle of conventional robots, an active–passive variable stiffness elastic actuator (APVSA) is investigated and a nonlinear dynamic model for the APVSA is established, considering the factors of the

Identification and modelling of dynamic parameters for round link chains subject to axial loads
Scientific Reports, 2022 A round link chain subject to axial dynamic loads composes a nonlinear viscoelastic system. Unlike the classical pounding problems, the round link chain will not only suffer linear elastic deformation, but also nonlinear plastic or impacting deformation.

Kink-antikink asymmetry and impurity interactions in topological mechanical chains [PDF]
, 2016 We study the dynamical response of a diatomic periodic chain of rotors coupled by springs, whose unit cell breaks spatial inversion symmetry. In the continuum description, we derive a nonlinear field theory which admits topological kinks and antikinks as

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Curvature‐tuned auxetic lattices are designed, fabricated, and mechanically characterized to reveal how geometric curvature governs stretchability, stress redistribution, and Poisson's ratio evolution. Photoelastic experiments visualize stress pathways, while hyperelastic simulations quantify deformation mechanics.

A novel method for detecting the position of nonlinear components in multi-degree-of-freedom nonlinear systems [PDF]
, 2006 Based on the Nonlinear Output Frequency Response Functions (NOFRFs), a novel method is developed to detect the position of nonlinear components in MDOF nonlinear systems. The validity of this method is demonstrated by numerical studies.

, 2017 In our earlier studies, we found the effect of non-conventional synchronization, which is a specific type of nonlinear stable beating in the system of two weakly coupled autogenerators with hard excitation given by generalized van der Pol-Duffing ...
