Wrinkles, folds and plasticity in granular rafts
Etienne Jambon-Puillet, Christophe Josserand, Suzie Protière
We investigate the mechanical response of a compressed monolayer of large and dense particles at a liquid-fluid interface: a granular raft. Upon compression, rafts first wrinkle; t…

The compression of a heavy floating elastic film
Etienne Jambon-Puillet, Dominic Vella, Suzie Protière
We study the effect of film density on the uniaxial compression of thin elastic films at a liquid--fluid interface. Using a combination of experiments and theory, we show that dens…
