Polyconvexity for Cosserat nonlinear elasticity and nonlinear couple-stress theory
Diana Ciotir, Ionel-Dumitrel Ghiba, Patrizio Neff
We study a class of nonlinear elastic energies whose constitutive structure is naturally expressed in terms of a stretch variable but is not directly covered by the standard polyco…

Propagation of Love waves in linear elastic isotropic Cosserat materials
Marius Apetrii, Emilian Bulgariu, Ionel-Dumitrel Ghiba +2
We investigate the propagation of Love waves in an isotropic half-space modelled as a linear {elastic isotropic} Cosserat material. To this aim, we show that a method commonly used…
