Nonlinear Elasticity in Biological Gels [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2004
Unlike most synthetic materials, biological materials often stiffen as they are deformed. This nonlinear elastic response, critical for the physiological function of some tissues, has been documented since at least the 19th century, but the molecular ...

The Ogden model of rubber mechanics: 50 years of impact on nonlinear elasticity. [PDF]

open access: yesPhilos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2022
We place the Ogden model of rubber elasticity, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society 50 years ago, in the wider context of the theory of nonlinear elasticity.

Nonlinear elasticity, yielding, and entropy in amorphous solids. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv, 2022
The holographic duality has proven successful in linking seemingly unrelated problems in physics. Recently, intriguing correspondences between the physics of soft matter and gravity are emerging, including strong similarities between the rheology of ...

Nonlinear elasticity of biological basement membrane revealed by rapid inflation and deflation. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021
Significance Basement membranes (BMs) are thin layers of extracellular matrix ubiquitously found in animals surrounding various tissues. As a physical barrier, their mechanical properties are important in maintaining structural integrity of tissues, and ...

Geometric charges and nonlinear elasticity of two-dimensional elastic metamaterials. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2020
Significance Elastic metamaterials—stretchable solids with an engineered micropattern of holes and ligaments—form an important class of matter due to their unusual, and tunable, mechanical properties.

Nonlinear elasticity of silica nanofiber [PDF]

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2019
Optical nanofibers (ONFs) represent versatile nanophotonic platforms for important photonic applications such as optical sensing and quantum and nonlinear optics. The attractiveness of ONFs arises from the tight optical confinement, their wide evanescent

Synthetic Extracellular Matrices with Nonlinear Elasticity Regulate Cellular Organization. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomacromolecules, 2019
One of the promises of synthetic materials in cell culturing is that control over their molecular structures may ultimately be used to control their biological processes.

Nonlinear elasticity of monolayer graphene [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2009
By combining continuum elasticity theory and tight-binding atomistic simulations, we work out the constitutive nonlinear stress-strain relation for graphene stretching elasticity and we calculate all the corresponding nonlinear elastic moduli.

A Hybrid High-Order method for nonlinear elasticity [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, 2017
In this work we propose and analyze a novel Hybrid High-Order discretization of a class of (linear and) nonlinear elasticity models in the small deformation regime which are of common use in solid mechanics.
