Vibration-based energy harvesting using piezoelectric materials have been investigated by several research groups with the aim of harvesting maximum energy and providing power to low-powered wireless electronic systems for their entire operational life. The electromechanical cou…
This thesis describes the results of the experimental investigations into some new geometrical configurations in plate-like structures materialising one-dimensional (1D) acoustic black holes for flexural waves (wedges of power-law profile) and two-dimensional (2D) acoustic black…
I will discuss well-posedness and long-time behavior of Mindlin-Timoshenko plate equa- tions that describe vibrations of thin plates. This system of partial differential equations was derived by R. Mindlin in 1951 (though E. Reissner also considered an analogous model ear- lier …

Recent developments in smart materials technology have led to the introduction of intelligent structures. One such approach is the use of composite members filled with electro-rheological (ER) fluids. This study first addresses the scope of research on ER fluid-based composites …
