Wall-to-wall optimal transport in two dimensions
Andre N. Souza, Ian Tobasco, Charles R. Doering
Gradient ascent methods are developed to compute incompressible flows that maximize heat transport between two isothermal no-slip parallel walls. Parameterizing the magnitude of ve…

Curvature-driven wrinkling of thin elastic shells
Ian Tobasco
How much energy does it take to stamp a thin elastic shell flat? Motivated by recent experiments on the wrinkling patterns of floating shells, we develop a rigorous method via -…
