Isometric Incompatibility in Growing Elastic Sheets
Yafei Zhang, Michael Moshe, Eran Sharon
Geometric incompatibility, the inability of a material's rest state to be realized in Euclidean space, underlies shape formation in natural and synthetic thin sheets. Classical Gau…
Curved crack paths are predicted by elastic-charges
Oran Szachter, Emmanuel Siefert, Mokhtar Adda-Bedia +2
Predicting crack trajectories in brittle solids remains an open challenge in fracture mechanics due to the non-local nature of crack propagation and the way cracks modify their sur…
Dipole Screening in Pure Shear Strain Protocols of Amorphous Solids
Chandana Mondal, Michael Moshe, Itamar Procaccia +1
When amorphous solids are subjected to simple or pure strain, they exhibit elastic increase in stress, punctuated by plastic events that become denser (in strain) upon increasing t…
Finite Elasticity of the Vertex Model and its Role in Rigidity of Curved Cellular Tissues
Arthur Hernandez, Michael F. Staddon, Michael Moshe +1
Using a mean field approach and simulation, we study the non-linear mechanical response of the vertex model (VM) of biological tissue under compression and dilation. The VM is know…
Geometric approach to mechanical design principles in continuous elastic sheets
Michal Arieli, Eran Sharon, Michael Moshe
Using a geometric formalism of elasticity theory we develop a systematic theoretical method for controlling and manipulating the mechanical response of slender solids to external l…
Kirigami mechanics as stress relief by elastic charges
Michael Moshe, Edward Esposito, Suraj Shankar +4
We develop a geometric approach to understand the mechanics of perforated thin elastic sheets, using the method of strain-dependent image elastic charges. This technique recognizes…
