Characterising the transformative shear response of cellular lattices when subject to topological reconfiguration (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Sundararaman, V., O'Donnell, M., Chenchiah, I., & Weaver, P. (2022, July). Characterising the transformative shear response of cellular lattices when subject to topological reconfiguration. Paper presented at 11th European Solid Mechanics Conference, National University of Ireland Galway

Demand for lightweight, adaptive and re-configurable structures is increasing in many fields such as space and robotics, encouraging designers to develop morphing lattice structures [1]. Changes in topology of lattice-like structures alters their eff... Read More about Characterising the transformative shear response of cellular lattices when subject to topological reconfiguration.

Tuning of compliant composite shell structures for assisted living (2022)
Presentation / Conference
O'Donnell, M., Stacey, J., Kim, C., & Shcenk, M. (2022, July). Tuning of compliant composite shell structures for assisted living. Paper presented at 11th European Solid Mechanics Conference, National University of Ireland Galway

The Office for National Statistics’ 50-year forecast predicts that the over sixty-five population of the UK will increase by 8.6 million [1], reflecting a world-wide trend towards ageing populations. Reduced mobility is commonplace within this demogr... Read More about Tuning of compliant composite shell structures for assisted living.
