A sequence of elastic patterns in a sheared bent sheet
D. Gimeno, B. K. Meghwar, G. Fisher +3
We document a sequence of bifurcations and elastic patterns in sheared bent sheets of intermediate aspect ratio. The sheets undergo inversion of curvature through the passage of lo…
Shear stresses in fluid and solid membranes with bending elasticity
S. Dharmavaram, J. A. Hanna
Comparison of a few simple models of fluid and solid membranes illustrates how shear stresses can arise from a bending energy through a coupling between curvature and surface stres…
Anisotropic swelling of anisotropic elastic panels
H. G. Wood, J. A. Hanna
While isotropic in-plane swelling problems for thin elastic sheets have been studied extensively in recent years, many shape-programmable materials, including nematic solids and 3D…
Contrasting bending energies from bulk elastic theories
H. G. Wood, J. A. Hanna
The choice of elastic energies for thin plates and shells is an unsettled issue with consequences for much recent modeling of soft matter. Through consideration of simple deformati…
Some observations on variational elasticity and its application to plates and membranes
J. A. Hanna
Energies and equilibrium equations for thin elastic plates are discussed, with emphasis on several issues pertinent to recent approaches in soft condensed matter. Consequences of c…
Bifurcations of buckled, clamped anisotropic rods and thin bands under lateral end translations
Tian Yu, J. A. Hanna
Motivated by observations of snap-through phenomena in buckled elastic strips subject to clamping and lateral end translations, we experimentally explore the multi-stability and bi…
