The channel geometry consists of a polygonal domain with angled edges at transition points. The polygonal nature of the geometry makes it amenable to analysis via the Unified Transform Method, providing quasi-analytical solutions which can be used to compute all the physical quantities of interest. We compute the pressure drop between the ends of the expansion or constriction region as a function of the channel width ratio and the orientation of the angled edges and compare our results to extended lubrication theory.","PeriodicalId":92460,"journal":{"name":"The quarterly journal of mechanics and applied mathematics","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87010564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, no general auxetic principle has been established from this perspective. In the present article, we show that a purely geometric approach to periodic auxetics is apt to identify essential characteristics of frameworks with auxetic deformations and can generate a systematic and endless series of periodic auxetic designs.

In gas dynamics, one common unrealistic aspect of most test problems is the ideal gas assumption, which is unsuited to many real applications, especially those involving high pressure and speed metal deformation. Our work considers the collapsing cavity and converging shock test problems, showing to what extent the ideal gas assumption can be removed from their specification. It is found that while most materials simply do not admit simple (that is scaling) solutions in this context, there are infinite-dimensional families of materials which do admit such solutions. We characterize such materials, derive the appropriate ordinary differential equations and analyze the associated nonlinear eigenvalue problem. It is shown that there is an inherent tension between boundedness of the solution, boundedness of its derivatives and the entropy condition. The special case of a constant-speed cavity collapse is considered and found to be heuristically possible, contrary to common intuition. Finally, we give an example of a concrete non-ideal collapsing cavity scaling solution based on a recently proposed pseudo-Mie–Gruneisen equation of state.","PeriodicalId":92460,"journal":{"name":"The quarterly journal of mechanics and applied mathematics","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83005656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we consider the eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian in a finite cylindrical domain that is split into two subdomains by a \"perforated\" barrier. We prove that the first eigenfunction is localized in the larger subdomain, i.e., its $L_2$ norm in the smaller subdomain can be made arbitrarily small by setting the diameter of the \"holes\" in the barrier small enough. This result extends the well known localization of Laplacian eigenfunctions in dumbbell domains. We also discuss an extension to noncylindrical domains with radial symmetry. Second, we study a scattering problem in an infinite cylindrical domain with two identical perforated barriers. If the holes are small, there exists a low frequency at which an incident wave is fully transmitted through both barriers. This result is counter-intuitive as a single barrier with the same holes would fully reflect incident waves with low frequences.","PeriodicalId":92460,"journal":{"name":"The quarterly journal of mechanics and applied mathematics","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78249564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
