IUTAM Symposium on Architectured Materials Mechanics: Call for abstracts

Submitted by Francois Barthelat on Wed, 10/11/2017 - 17:44

This "Architectured Materials Mechanics" IUTAM (http://iutam.org/) Symposium will take place September 17-19, 2018 in downtown Chicago, Illinois. It aims to provide a state of the art on the engineering science (design, fabrication, mechanics) of architectured materials including (but not limited to): lattice materials, metamaterials, origami, topologically interlocked materials and bioinspired materials. The list of invited speakers can be found on the symposium website:

Mechanical Reading of Ferroelectric Polarization

Submitted by Amir Abdollahi on Wed, 10/11/2017 - 10:37

research

The mechanical properties of materials are insensitive to space inversion, even when they are crystallographically asymmetric. In practice, this means that turning a piezoelectric crystal upside down or switching the polarization of a ferroelectric should not change its mechanical response. Strain gradients, however, introduce an additional source of asymmetry that has mechanical consequences.
