Colloquium

Abstract: Flow-induced noise is a significant problem for air, road and marine vehicles as well as many other engineering applications.  At low Mach numbers, large disparities in energy levels and length scales between the flow and the concomitant sound present unique challenges for acoustic predictions.  This talk will start with a brief overview of computational […]

Many interesting problems in nonlinear mechanics, from classical to more recent, pertain to applications with high initial symmetry: from the buckling of thin walled structures to the morphing in architected materials – the list is long! A common feature of these problems, in addition to their importance for engineering applications, is their great theoretical interest […]
