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…
