Closed form expressions for the Green’s function of a quantum graph—a scattering approach (2023)
Journal Article

In this work we present a three step procedure for generating a closed form expression of the Green’s function on both closed and open finite quantum graphs with general self-adjoint matching conditions.

A quantum graph approach to metamaterial design (2022)
Journal Article

Since the turn of the century, metamaterials have gained a large amount of attention due to their potential for possessing highly nontrivial and exotic properties—such as cloaking or perfect lensing. There has been a great push to create reliable mat... Read More about A quantum graph approach to metamaterial design.

Acoustic radiation from random waves on plates (2022)
Journal Article

Controlling and simulating the sound radiating from complex structures is of importance in many engineering applications.

Guided waves-based damage identification in plates through an inverse Bayesian process (2022)
Journal Article

The use of guided waves to identify damage has become a popular method due to its robustness and fast execution, as well as the advantage of being able to inspect large areas and detect minor structural defects.

The next generations of wireless networks will work in frequency bands ranging from sub-6 GHz up to 100 GHz. Radio signal propagation differs here in several critical aspects from the behaviour in the microwave frequencies currently used. With wavele...
