Fate of a bulge in an inflated hyperleastic tube: theory and experiment
Masoud Hejazi, York Hsiang, A. Srikantha Phani
Mechanical instability in a pre-tensioned finite hyperelastic tube subjected to a slowly increasing internal pressure produces a spatially localized bulge at a critical pressure. T…
