Nonlinear dispersive waves in soft elastic laminates under finite magneto-deformations
Harold Berjamin, Stephan Rudykh
Layered media can be used as acoustic filters, allowing only waves of certain frequencies to propagate. In soft magneto-active laminates, the shear wave band gaps (i.e., the freque…
Elastic wave propagation in magneto-active fibre composites
Harold Berjamin, Stephan Rudykh
Fibre-reinforced elastomers are lightweight and strong materials that can sustain large deformations. When filled with magnetic particles, their effective mechanical response can b…
Low-frequency tunable topological interface states in soft phononic crystal cylinders
Yingjie Chen, Bin Wu, Jian Li +2
Topological phononic crystals have attracted intensive attention due to their peculiar topologically protected interface or edge states. Their operating frequency, however, is gene…
Towards mechanical characterization of soft digital materials for multimaterial 3D-printing
Viacheslav Slesarenko, Stephan Rudykh
We study mechanical behavior of soft rubber-like digital materials used in Polyjet multi-material 3D-printing to create deformable composite materials and flexible structures. Thes…
Manipulating P-and S-elastic waves in dielectric elastomers via external electric stimuli
Pavel Galich, Stephan Rudykh
We investigate elastic wave propagation in finitely deformed dielectric elastomers in the presence of an electrostatic field. To analyze the propagation of both longitudinal (P-) a…
Explicit dispersion relations for elastic waves in extremely deformed soft matter with application to nearly incompressible and auxetic materials
Pavel Galich, Stephan Rudykh
We analyze the propagation of elastic waves in soft materials subjected to finite deformations. We derive explicit dispersion relations, and apply these results to study elastic wa…
Giant Enhancement of the Electromechanical Coupling in Soft Heterogeneous Dielectrics
Stephan Rudykh, Arnon Lewinstein, Gil Uner +1
Electroactive soft elastomers require huge electric field for a meaningful actuation. We demonstrate that this can be dramatically reduced and giant deformations can be produced by…
