Rayleigh waves in micro-structured elastic systems: Non-reciprocity and energy symmetry breaking (2020)
Journal Article
Nieves. (2020). Rayleigh waves in micro-structured elastic systems: Non-reciprocity and energy symmetry breaking. International Journal of Engineering Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2020.103365

Rayleigh waves are analysed in elastic lattices incorporating inertial devices that couple in-plane displacements. The vector problems of elasticity for a triangular lattice and its long-wavelength/low-frequency continuum approximation are considered...

Reinvigorating the Wiener-Hopf technique in the pursuit to understand processes and materials (2020)
Journal Article
Nieves. (2020). Reinvigorating the Wiener-Hopf technique in the pursuit to understand processes and materials. National Science Review, https://doi.org/10.1093/nsr/nwaa225

This perspective originated during the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences research programme “Bringing pure and applied analysis together via the Wiener-Hopf technique, its generalisations and applications (WHT)”. It fuelled intensive d... Read More about Reinvigorating the Wiener-Hopf technique in the pursuit to understand processes and materials.

Dynamic phenomena and crack propagation in dissimilar elastic lattices (2020)
Journal Article
Nieves. (2020). Dynamic phenomena and crack propagation in dissimilar elastic lattices. International Journal of Engineering Science, 103208 - 103208. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2019.103208

Dynamic Mode III interfacial fracture in a dissimilar square-cell lattice, composed of two contrasting mass-spring lattice half-planes joined at an interface, is considered. The fracture, driven by a remotely applied load, is assumed to propagate at... Read More about Dynamic phenomena and crack propagation in dissimilar elastic lattices.
