Configurational forces on elastic structures
Davide Bigoni, Federico Bosi, Francesco Dal Corso +1
The discovery of configurational forces acting on elastic structures and its initial applications are reviewed. Configurational forces are related to the possibility that an elasti…
Asymptotic self-restabilization of a continuous elastic structure
F. Bosi, D. Misseroni, F. Dal Corso +2
A challenge in soft robotics and soft actuation is the determination of an elastic system which spontaneously recovers its trivial path during postcritical deformation after a bifu…
An Elastica Arm Scale
F. Bosi, D. Misseroni, F. Dal Corso +1
The concept of 'deformable arm scale' (completely different from a traditional rigid arm balance) is theoretically introduced and experimentally validated. The idea is not intuitiv…
Development of configurational forces during the injection of an elastic rod
F. Bosi, D. Misseroni, F. Dal Corso +1
When an inextensible elastic rod is 'injected' through a sliding sleeve against a fixed constraint, configurational forces are developed, deeply influencing the mechanical response…
Experimental investigation of the elastoplastic response of aluminum silicate spray dried powder during cold compaction
F. Bosi, A. Piccolroaz, M. Gei +3
Mechanical experiments have been designed and performed to investigate the elasto-plastic behaviour of green bodies formed from an aluminum silicate spray dried powder used for til…
Eshelby-like forces acting on elastic structures: theoretical and experimental proof
Davide Bigoni, Francesco Dal Corso, Federico Bosi +1
The Eshelbian (or configurational) force is the main concept of a celebrated theoretical framework associated with the motion of dislocations and, more in general, defects in solid…
