Membrane-mediated interactions between disk-like inclusions adsorbed on vesicles

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Self-assembly of membrane inclusions plays a key role in biological processes such as cellular signalling and trafficking and has potential applications for designing interfacial devices such as sensors and actuators.

Minimal energy for elastic inclusions [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2010
We consider a variant of the isoperimetric problem with a non-local term representing elastic energy. More precisely, our aim is to analyse the optimal energy of an inclusion of a fixed volume the energy of which is determined by surface and elastic energies.

Achilles Tendon Mechanical Behavior and Ankle Joint Function at the Walk-to-Run Transition

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Walking at speeds higher than transition speed is associated with a decrease in the plantar-flexor muscle fibres’ ability to produce force and, potentially, to an impaired behaviour of the muscle–tendon unit (MTU) elastic components.

Elastic energy of a convex body [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Nachrichten, 2015
In this paper a Blaschke‐Santaló diagram involving the area, the perimeter and the elastic energy of planar convex bodies is considered. More precisely we give a description of set urn:x-wiley:0025584X:media:mana201400256:mana201400256-math-0001where A is the area, P is the perimeter and E is the elastic energy, that is a Willmore type energy in the ...

A variational model for conformation of graphene wrinkles formed on a shrinking solid metal substrate

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2020
Chemical vapor deposition is a popular technique for producing high-quality graphene sheets on a substrate. However, the cooling process causes the graphene sheet to experience a strain-induced, out-of-plane buckling.

Energy-Minimizing Microstructures in Multiphase Elastic Solids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This thesis concerns problems of microstructure and its macroscopic consequences in multiphase elastic solids, both single crystals and polycrystals. The elastic energy of a two-phase solid is a function of its microstructure.
