Wrinkling and developable cones in centrally confined sheets
Lucia Stein-Montalvo, Arman Guerra, Kanani Almeida +2
Thin sheets respond to confinement by smoothly wrinkling, or by focusing stress into small, sharp regions. From engineering to biology, geology, textiles, and art, thin sheets are…
Efficient snap-through of spherical caps by applying a localized curvature stimulus
Lucia Stein-Montalvo, Jeong-Ho Lee, Yi Yang +3
In bistable actuators and other engineered devices, a homogeneous stimulus (e.g. mechanical, chemical, thermal, or magnetic) is often applied to an entire shell to initiate a snap-…
Delayed buckling of spherical shells due to viscoelastic knockdown of the critical load
Lucia Stein-Montalvo, Douglas P. Holmes, Gwennou Coupier
We performed dynamic pressure buckling experiments on defect-seeded spherical shells made of a common silicone elastomer. Unlike in quasi-static experiments, shells buckled at oste…
Buckling of geometrically confined shells
Lucia Stein-Montalvo, Paul Costa, Matteo Pezzulla +1
We study the periodic buckling patterns that emerge when elastic shells are subjected to geometric confinement. Residual swelling provides access to range of shapes (saddles, rolle…
