Probabilistic buckling of imperfect hemispherical shells containing a distribution of defects
Fani Derveni, William Gueissaz, Dong Yan +1
The buckling of spherical shells is plagued by a strong sensitivity to imperfections. Traditionally, imperfect shells tend to be characterized empirically by the knockdown factor,…
Snap buckling of bistable beams under combined mechanical and magnetic loading
Arefeh Abbasi, Tomohiko G. Sano, Dong Yan +1
We investigate the mechanics of bistable, hard-magnetic, elastic beams, combining experiments, finite element modeling (FEM), and a reduced-order theory. The beam is made of a hard…
A reduced-order, rotation-based model for thin hard-magnetic plates
Dong Yan, Bastien F. G. Aymon, Pedro M. Reis
We develop a reduced-order model for thin plates made of hard magnetorheological elastomers (hard-MREs), which are materials composed of hard-magnetic particles embedded in a polym…
