Mechanochemical feedback drives complex inertial dynamics in active solids
Siddhartha Sarkar, Biswarup Ash, Yueyang Wu +3
Active solids combine internal active driving with elasticity to realize states with nonequilibrium mechanics and autonomous motion. They are often studied in overdamped settings,…
Computational inverse design of acoustoplasmonic metasurfaces
Julia E. Holland, Nicholas Boechler, Lisa V. Poulikakos
Optical and acoustic metasurfaces are two-dimensional arrays of subwavelength elements that locally modulate or phase shift incident waves. Acoustoplasmonic metasurfaces combine th…
Electric-Field-Controlled Chemical Reaction via Piezo-Chemistry Creates Programmable Material Stiffness
Jun Wang, Zhao Wang, Jorge Ayarza +12
The spatial and temporal control of material properties at a distance has yielded many unique innovations including photo-patterning, 3D-printing, and architected material design.…
Observation of mechanical kink control and generation via phonons
Kai Qian, Nan Cheng, Francesco Serafin +4
Kinks (or domain walls) are localized transitions between distinct ground states associated with a topological invariant, and are central to many phenomena across physics, from con…
Minimizing finite viscosity enhances relative kinetic energy absorption in bistable mechanical metamaterials but only with sufficiently fine discretization: a nonlinear dynamical size effect
Haning Xiu, Ryan Fancher, Ian Frankel +4
Bistable mechanical metamaterials have shown promise for mitigating the harmful consequences of impact by converting kinetic energy into stored strain energy, offering an alternati…
Customizable wave tailoring materials enabled by nonlinear bilevel inverse design
Brianna MacNider, Haning Xiu, Kai Qian +3
Passive transformation of waves via nonlinear systems is ubiquitous in settings ranging from acoustics to optics and electromagnetics. Passivity is of particular importance for res…
