Lattice shells composed of two families of curved Kirchhoff rods: an archetypal example, topology optimization of a cycloidal metamaterial
I Giorgio - Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics, 2021 - Springer
A nonlinear elastic model for nets made up of two families of curved fibers is proposed. The
net is planar prior to the deformation, but the equilibrium configuration that minimizes the …

Commented translation of Erwin Schrödinger's paper 'On the dynamics of elastically coupled point systems' (Zur Dynamik elastisch gekoppelter Punktsysteme)
The paper 'Zur Dynamik elastisch gekoppelter Punktsysteme'by Schrödinger (1914) does
not seem to have attracted the attention that it deserves. We translate it into English here and …
