Gent models for the inflation of spherical balloons
Robert Mangan, Michel Destrade
We revisit an iconic deformation of non-linear elasticity: the inflation of a rubber spherical thin shell. We use the 3-parameter Mooney and Gent-Gent (GG) phenomenological models…
Strain energy function for isotropic non-linear elastic incompressible solids with linear finite strain response in shear and torsion
Robert Mangan, Michel Destrade, Giuseppe Saccomandi
We find the strain energy function for isotropic incompressible solids exhibiting a linear relationship between shear stress and amount of shear, and between torque and amount of t…
Wrinkles in the opening angle method
Michel Destrade, Irene Lusetti, Robert Mangan +1
We investigate the stability of the deformation modeled by the opening angle method, often used to give a measure of residual stresses in arteries and other biological soft tubular…
Guided waves in pre-stressed hyperelastic plates and tubes: Application to the ultrasound elastography of thin-walled soft materials
Guo-Yang Li, Qiong He, Robert Mangan +5
In vivo measurement of the mechanical properties of thin-walled soft tissues (e.g., mitral valve, artery and bladder) and in situ mechanical characterization of thin-walled artific…
Wrinkles and creases in the bending, unbending and eversion of soft sectors
Taisiya Sigaeva, Robert Mangan, Luigi Vergori +2
We study what is clearly one of the most common modes of deformation found in nature, science and engineering, namely the large elastic bending of curved structures, as well as its…
