Electromechanical Coupling of Distributed Piezoelectric Transducers for Passive Damping of Structural Vibrations: Comparison of Network Configurations
… derived by an energetic approach based on the principle of virtual powers. Weak and strong formulation of the dynamical problem are presented having in mind future studies involving the determination of numerical solutions. In this framework the effectiveness of the proposed devices for the …

Geometric Mechanics of Active Particles
… On the other hand, active systems imply power-injection at the microscale and thus dynamics that can not be encapsulated within the Hamiltonian formalism. It is therefore surprising that Hamiltonian functions should occured in a variety of active matter problems. Even more surprising is …
