Dynamically triggered snap-through

Gregory Kozyreff, Lucie Domino, Basile Radisson +1

Snap-through is a sudden and large mechanical deformation that is usually triggered by driving a control parameter beyond a bifurcation threshold. Here, we study a buckled strip th…

Accelerated snapping of slender beams under lateral forcing

Colin M. Meulblok, Hadrien Bense, M. Caelen +1

The hysteretic snapping under lateral forcing of a compressed, buckled beam is fundamental for many devices and mechanical metamaterials. For a single-tip lateral pusher, an import…

Optimal rigid brush for fluid capture

Basile Radisson, Hadrien Bense, Emmanuel Siéfert +3

Parallel assemblies of slender structures forming brushes are common in our daily life from sweepers to pastry brushes and paintbrushes. This type of porous objects can easily trap…

Landau-Levich Enhanced Cheerios Effect

Hadrien Bense, Emmanuel Siéfert, Fabian Brau

We study the capillary attraction force between two fibers dynamically withdrawn from a bath. We propose an experimental method to measure this force and show that its magnitude st…

Complex pathways and memory in compressed corrugated sheets

Hadrien Bense, Martin van Hecke

The nonlinear response of driven complex materials -- disordered magnets, amorphous media, crumpled sheets -- features intricate transition pathways where the system repeatedly hop…

Mechanics and energetics of electromembranes

Hadrien Bense, Benoît Roman, Bruno Andreotti

The recent discovery of electro-active polymers has shown great promises in the field of soft robotics, and was logically followed by experimental, numerical and theoretical develo…

Modeling shape selection of buckled dielectric elastomers

Jacob Langham, Hadrien Bense, Dwight Barkley

A dielectric elastomer whose edges are held fixed will buckle, given sufficient applied voltage, resulting in a nontrivial out-of-plane deformation. We study this situation numeric…
