Bending Rigidity and Gaussian Bending Stiffness of Single-Layered Graphene [PDF]

Nano Letters, 2012
Bending rigidity and Gaussian bending stiffness are the two key parameters that govern the rippling of suspended graphene-an unavoidable phenomenon of two-dimensional materials when subject to a thermal or mechanical field. A reliable determination about these two parameters is of significance for both the design and the manipulation of graphene ...

Strength and Stiffness of Corrugated Plates Subjected to Bending

Buildings
When a beam twists, localized flexural deformation in the plate occurs at the connection between the corrugated plate and the beam, resulting in a reduction in the bracing stiffness of the corrugated plate. To accurately assess the bracing stiffness of a

Elastic Curves With Variable Bending Stiffness

Studies in Applied Mathematics
ABSTRACTWe study stationary points of the bending energy of curves subject to constraints on the arc length and the curve's holonomy while simultaneously allowing for a variable bending stiffness along the arc length of the curve. Physically, this can be understood as a model for an elastic wire with isotropic cross section of varying thickness.
