Programmable wrinkling for functionally-graded auxetic circular membranes
Sairam Pamulaparthi Venkata, Valentina Balbi, Michel Destradea +2
Materials with negative Poisson's ratio, also known as auxetic materials, display exotic properties such as expansion in all directions under uni-axial tension. For their unique pr…

Canceling the elastic Poynting effect with geometry
M. Destrade, Y. Du, J. Blackwell +2
The Poynting effect is a paragon of nonlinear soft matter mechanics. It is the tendency (found in all incompressible, isotropic, hyperelastic solids) exhibited by a soft block to e…

The KP equation of plane elastodynamics
Harold Berjamin, Michel Destrade, Giuseppe Saccomandi
The propagation of nonlinear and dispersive waves in various materials can be described by the well-known Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation, which is a (2+1)-dimensional partial…
