Buckling and wrinkling of thin membranes by using a numerical solver based on multivariate Taylor series [PDF]
Buckling and wrinkling of thin structures often lead to very complex response curves that are hard to follow by standard path-following techniques, especially for very thin membranes in a slack or nearly slack state.

We prove theoretically that when a soft solid is subjected to an extreme deformation, wrinkles can form on its surface at an angle that is oblique to a principal direction of stretch. These oblique wrinkles occur for a strain that is smaller than the one required to obtain wrinkles normal to the direction of greatest compression.

The B form of poly d(GC):poly d(GC) in orthorhombic microcrystallites in oriented fibers has a secondary structure in which a dinucleotide is the repeated motif rather than a mononucleotide as in standard, smooth B DNA. One set of nucleotides (probably GpC) has the same conformations as the smooth form but the alternate (CpG) nucleotides have a ...

Wrinkling of Dielectric Elastomer Membranes [PDF]
Wrinkling of thin membranes due to different in-plane loading and boundary conditions has drawn attention of researchers in structural engineering since the development of thin webs for early aircraft structures.

Residual Stresses in Thermoplastic Composites: A Review [PDF]
Applications of thermoplastic composites have developed extensively. The thermoplastic composites in comparison with the thermoset composites have many advantages. Thermoplastic composites can be melted and remolded many times.

Facial wrinkling: A possible mirror of COPD severity.....
Background and objective: The objective of our study was to test the hypothesis that facial wrinkling is a reflection to the severity of COPD disease and whether there is an association between facial wrinkling score and the severity of COPD as assessed ...

Local buckling evolution mechanism of a buried steel pipe under fault movements
Pipe is the main transportation way for oil and natural gas. Fault movement mainly caused by earthquake, which will induce pipe bending, tension and compression. Then oil or gas leakage appear.

Clefted Equilibrium Shapes of Superpressure Balloon Structures [PDF]
This thesis presents a numerical and analytical study of the clefted equilibrium shape of superpressure balloon structures. Lobed superpressure balloons have shown a tendency to deploy into unexpected asymmetric shapes, hence their design has to strike a
