Curvature-driven instabilities in thin active shells
Andrea Giudici, John S. Biggins
Spontaneous material shape changes, such as swelling, growth or thermal expansion, can be used to trigger dramatic elastic instabilities in thin shells. These instabilities origina…
Tracking areas with increased likelihood of surface particle aggregation in the Gulf of Finland: A first look at persistent Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCS)
Andrea Giudici, Kabir Suara, Tarmo Soomere +1
We explore the possibility to identify areas of intense patch formation from floating items due to systematic convergence of surface velocity fields by means of a visual comparison…
Giant deformations and soft-inflation in LCE balloons
Andrea Giudici, John S. Biggins
We propose that ballooning can be controlled, enriched and amplified by using rubbery networks of aligned molecular rods known as liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs). Firstly, LCEs ar…
Ballooning, bulging and necking: an exact solution for longitudinal phase separation in elastic systems near a critical point
Andrea Giudici, John S. Biggins
Prominent examples of longitudinal phase separation in elastic systems include elastic necking, the propagation of a bulge in a cylindrical party balloon and the beading of a gel f…
