Princess and the Pea at the nanoscale: Wrinkling and delamination of graphene on nanoparticles [PDF]
, 2012 Thin membranes exhibit complex responses to external forces or geometrical constraints. A familiar example is the wrinkling, exhibited by human skin, plant leaves, and fabrics, resulting from the relative ease of bending versus stretching. Here, we study

Minimal resonances in annular non-Euclidean strips [PDF]
, 2010 Differential growth processes play a prominent role in shaping leaves and biological tissues. Using both analytical and numerical calculations, we consider the shapes of closed, elastic strips which have been subjected to an inhomogeneous pattern of ...

Disappearance of stretch-induced wrinkles of thin sheets: a study of orthotropic films [PDF]
, 2016 A recent paper (Healey et al., J. Nonlin. Sci., 2013, 23:777-805.) predicted the disappearance of the stretch-induced wrinkled pattern of thin, clamped, elastic sheets by numerical simulation of the F\"oppl-von K\'arm\'an equations extended to the finite

Wrinkling of a bilayer membrane [PDF]
, 2006 The buckling of elastic bodies is a common phenomenon in the mechanics of solids. Wrinkling of membranes can often be interpreted as buckling under constraints that prohibit large amplitude deformation.

Finite bending and pattern evolution of the associated instability for a dielectric elastomer slab [PDF]
, 2018 We investigate the finite bending and the associated bending instability of an incompressible dielectric slab subject to a combination of applied voltage and axial compression, using nonlinear electro-elasticity theory and its incremental version.

Real-time imaging of pulvinus bending in Mimosa pudica [PDF]
, 2019 Mimosa pudica is a plant that rapidly shrinks its body in response to external stimuli. M. pudica does not perform merely simple movements, but exhibits a variety of movements that quickly change depending on the type of stimuli.

The Mullins effect in the wrinkling behavior of highly stretched thin films [PDF]
, 2018 Recent work demonstrates that finite-deformation nonlinear elasticity is essential in the accurate modeling of wrinkling in highly stretched thin films.

Impact on floating membranes [PDF]
, 2016 When impacted by a rigid object, a thin elastic membrane with negligible bending rigidity floating on a liquid pool deforms. Two axisymmetric waves radiating from the impact point propagate.
