Characterization of mechanical properties of materials is essential toward understanding their deformation behavior when subjected to external forces. For a complete understanding of the behavior of materials from the interaction of atoms at the nano... Read More about Multiscale Modeling for the Statics of Nanostructures.

Analytical study on growth-induced axisymmetric deformations and shape-control of circular hyperelastic plates (2021)
Journal Article

Growth of soft material plates is commonly observed in nature. However, the relations between growth fields and shape changes of the plate samples remain poorly understood. The current work aims to derive some analytical results for the growth-induce...

Vortex-induced vibrations are often unwanted as they can lead to catastrophic failure of the associated structures, warranting countermeasures to mitigate or suppress these vibrations. Due to the nature of nonlinearities in fluid–structure interactio...
