Direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional surface instability patterns in thin film-compliant substrate structures [PDF]
A comprehensive numerical study of three-dimensional surface instability patterns is presented. The formation of wrinkles is a consequence of deformation instability when a thin film, bonded to a compliant substrate, is subject to in-plane compressive ...

Biomechanical analysis of single leg deadlift under the effect of instability [PDF]
The single leg deadlift (SLD), one of resistance exercises, is widely prescribed to enhance muscular strength and balance due to its inherent unstable, unilateral nature.

Surface wrinkling instability in thin films attached to a compliant substrate is a well-recognized form of deformation under mechanical loading. The influence of the loading history on the formation of instability patterns has not been studied.

Surface Instability in a Nematic Elastomer
Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are soft phase-changing solids that exhibit large reversible contractions upon heating, Goldstone-like soft modes and resultant microstructural instabilities. We heat a planar LCE slab to isotropic, clamp the lower surface then cool back to nematic.

Surface instability of icicles [PDF]
Quantitatively-unexplained stationary waves or ridges often encircle icicles. Such waves form when roughly 0.1 mm-thick layers of water flow down the icicle. These waves typically have a wavelength of 1cm approximately independent of external temperature, icicle thickness, and the volumetric rate of water flow.

Surface Instabilities in Cracks [PDF]
The surface of a propagating crack is shown to be morphologically unstable because of the nonhydrostatic stresses near the surface (Asaro-Tiller-Grinfeld instability). We find that the energy of a wavy crack becomes smaller than the energy of a straight crack if the crack length is a few times larger than the Griffith length.

Surface instability in windblown sand [PDF]
We investigate the formation of ripples on the surface of windblown sand based on the one-dimensional model of Nishimori and Ouchi [Phys. Rev. Lett. 71, 197 (1993)], which contains the processes of saltation and grain relaxation. We carry out a nonlinear analysis to determine the propagation speed of the restabilized ripple patterns, and the amplitudes
