Birth and decay of tensional wrinkles in hyperelastic sheets

Andreea Panaitescu, Meng Xin, Benny Davidovitch +2

We demonstrate with experiments that wrinkling in stretched latex sheets occur over finite strains, and that their amplitudes grow and then decay to zero over a greater range of ap…

Micromechanics of intruder motion in wet granular medium

Rausan Jewel, Andreea Panaitescu, Arshad Kudrolli

We investigate the effective friction encountered by an intruder moving through a sedimented medium which consists of transparent granular hydrogels immersed in water, and the resu…

Persistence of perfect packing in twisted bundles of elastic filaments

Andreea Panaitescu, Gregory M. Grason, Arshad Kudrolli

It is generally understood that geometric frustration prevents maximal hexagonal packings in uniform filament bundles upon twist. We demonstrate that a hexagonal packed elastic fil…

Measuring geometric frustration in twisted inextensible filament bundles

Andreea Panaitescu, Gregory M. Grason, Arshad Kudrolli

We investigate with experiments and novel mapping the structure of a hexagonally ordered filament bundle that is held near its ends and progressively twisted around its central axi…

Spatial distribution functions of random packed granular spheres obtained by direct particle imaging

Andreea Panaitescu, Arshad Kudrolli

We measure the two-point density correlations and Voronoi cell distributions of cyclically sheared granular spheres obtained with a fluorescence technique and compare them with ran…
