Exterior dissipation, proportional decay, and integrals of motion
M. Aureli, J. A. Hanna
Given a dynamical system with independent conserved quantities, we construct a multi-parameter family of new systems in which these quantities evolve monotonically and proporti…

Contrasting bending energies from bulk elastic theories
H. G. Wood, J. A. Hanna
The choice of elastic energies for thin plates and shells is an unsettled issue with consequences for much recent modeling of soft matter. Through consideration of simple deformati…

Some observations on variational elasticity and its application to plates and membranes
J. A. Hanna
Energies and equilibrium equations for thin elastic plates are discussed, with emphasis on several issues pertinent to recent approaches in soft condensed matter. Consequences of c…
