Design principles for energy dissipation in viscoelastic network metamaterials
Niranjan Sarpangala, Sean Fancher, Prashant K. Purohit +1
The paper presents a graph‑Laplacian spectral method to efficiently model viscoelastic truss networks and uses it to design architectures that maximize mechanical energy dissipatio…
On the Statistical Mechanics of Active Membranes: Some Selected Results
Sreekanth Ramesh, Prashant K. Purohit, Yashashree Kulkarni
Biological membranes and vesicles play a central role in living systems, forming dynamic interfaces that regulate cellular organization and function. Classical descriptions of memb…
An efficient spectral method for the dynamic behavior of truss structures
Sean Fancher, Prashant Purohit, Eleni Katifori
Truss structures at macro-scale are common in a number of engineering applications and are now being increasingly used at the micro-scale to construct metamaterials. In analyzing t…
