Numerical convergence of nonlinear nonlocal continuum models to local elastodynamics

open access: yes, 2018
We quantify the numerical error and modeling error associated with replacing a nonlinear nonlocal bond-based peridynamic model with a local elasticity model or a linearized peridynamics model away from the fracture set. The nonlocal model treated here is

Robust Inverse Material Design With Physical Guarantees Using the Voigt‐Reuss Net

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
ABSTRACT We apply the Voigt‐Reuss net, a spectrally normalized neural surrogate introduced in [38], for forward and inverse mechanical homogenization with a key guarantee that all predicted effective stiffness tensors satisfy Voigt‐Reuss bounds in the Löwner sense during training, inference, and gradient‐driven optimization.

Adhesion-induced phase separation of multiple species of membrane junctions

open access: yes, 2002
A theory is presented for the membrane junction separation induced by the adhesion between two biomimetic membranes that contain two different types of anchored junctions (receptor/ligand complexes).

Tunable Sound Absorption via Evanescent‐Wave Coupling in Asymmetric Bilayer Metasurfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.
Tunable sound absorption is realized through a bilayer metasurface system governed by evanescent‐wave coupling. This work demonstrates that such evanescent‐wave coupling provides a controllable scattering channel that destructively interferes with the specular reflection.

Fractional Generalizations of Gradient Mechanics

open access: yes, 2018
This short chapter provides a fractional generalization of gradient mechanics, an approach (originally advanced by the author in the mid 80s) that has gained world-wide attention in the last decades due to its capability of modeling pattern forming ...

Integrating Experimental Imaging and (Quantum‐Deformation)‐Curvature Dynamics in Bleb Morphogenesis

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
We propose a (q,τ)$$ \left(q,\tau \right) $$‐fractional geometric flow model for cell blebbing that incorporates hereditary memory and viscoelastic effects in curvature‐driven membrane dynamics. Image‐based measurements of bleb geometry are coupled with fractional evolution equations and validated numerically.

Buckling analysis of nonuniform nonlocal strain gradient beams using generalized differential quadrature method

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2018
Recently, it was shown that the length scales presented in nonlocal elasticity and strain gradient theory each describe a different physical and material properties of structures at small scales.
