Professor Hiroshi Okada and his team from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology, Tokyo University of Science, Japan, are engaged in the field of computational fracture mechanics. This is an area of computational engineering that refers to the creation of numerical methods to approximate the crack evolutions predicted by new classes of fracture mechanics models. For many years, it has been used to determine stress intensity factors and, more recently, has expanded into the simulation of crack nucleation and propagation. In their work, the researchers are proposing new methods for fracture mechanics analysis and solid mechanics analysis.

The unification of the laws of fluid and solid mechanics is achieved on the basis of the concepts of discrete mechanics and the principles of equivalence and relativity, but also the Helmholtz–Hodge decomposition where a vector is written as the sum of divergence-free and curl-free components. The derived equation of motion translates the conservation of acceleration over a segment, that of the intrinsic acceleration of the material medium and the sum of the accelerations applied to it. The scalar and vector potentials of the acceleration, which are the compression and shear energies, give the discrete equation of motion the role of conservation law for total mechanical energy. Velocity and displacement are obtained using an incremental time process from acceleration. After a description of the main stages of the derivation of the equation of motion, unique for the fluid and the solid, the cases of couplings in simple shear and uniaxial compression of two media, fluid and solid, make it possible to show the role of discrete operators and to find the theoretical results. The application of the formulation is then extended to a classical validation case in fluid–structure interaction.

This article deals with the modeling of magneto-electro-elastic auxetic structures and developing a methodology in COMSOL Multiphysics® to assess the free vibration response of such structures when subjected to various electromagnetic circuit conditions. The triple energy interaction between elastic, magnetic, and electric fields are established in the COMSOL Multiphysics® using structural mechanics and electromagnetic modules. The multiphase magneto-electro-elastic material with different percentages of piezoelectric and piezomagnetic phases are used as the material. In the solid mechanics module, the piezoelectric and piezomagnetic materials were created in stress-charge and stress-magnetization forms, respectively. The electric and magnetic fields are defined in COMSOL Multiphysics® through electromagnetic equations. Further, the customized controlled meshing constituted of free tetrahedral and triangular elements is adapted to trade-off between the accuracy and the computational expenses. The eigenvalue analysis is performed to obtain the natural frequencies of the MEE re-entrant auxetic structures. Also, the efficiency of smart auxetic structures over conventional honeycomb structures is presented throughout the manuscript. In addition, the discrepancy in the natural frequencies of the structures considering coupled and uncoupled state is also illustrated. It is believed that the modeling procedure and its outcomes serve as benchmark solutions for further design and analysis of smart auxetic magneto-electro-elastic structures.
