In recent decades, origami has been explored to aid in the design of engineering structures.
These structures span multiple scales and have been demonstrated to be used toward …

Magnetoactive soft materials (MSMs) are soft polymeric composites filled with magnetic
particles that are an emerging class of smart and multifunctional materials with immense …

Hard-magnetic soft composites consist of magneto-active polymers (MAPs) where the fillers
are composed of hard-magnetic (magnetically polarised) particles. These novel …

Hard-magnetic soft materials are a class of magnetically responsive composites obtained by
embedding hard-magnetic particles into a soft polymeric matrix. They have found …

In this paper, we present a theoretical model for the analysis of large magneto-deformation
and the anti-plane shear wave bandgaps in 2D periodic two-phase hard magnetic soft …

Recent advances in magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) have posed the question on
whether the combination of both soft-and hard-magnetic particles may open new routes to …

We propose a new concept of self-healing soft material that does not require external
actuation to heal after rupture. This consists of a sticky and soft elastomeric matrix filled with …

Hard-magnetic soft materials belong to the class of active materials that undergo finite
deformation and alter their material properties when subjected to magnetic loading …

The complex magneto-mechanical coupling that governs the material response of
magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) requires computational tools to assist the design …

Biological cells and tissues are continuously subjected to mechanical stress and strain cues
from their surrounding substrate. How these forces modulate cell and tissue behavior is a …
