Fluid driven fingering instability of a confined elastic meniscus
J. S. Biggins, Z. Wei, L. Mahadevan
When a fluid is pumped into a cavity in a confined elastic layer, at a critical pressure, destabilizing fingers of fluid invade the elastic solid along its meniscus (Saintyves, Dau…

Exactly isochoric deformations of soft solids
J. S. Biggins, Z. Wei, L. Mahadevan
Many materials of contemporary interest, such as gels, biological tissues and elastomers, are easily deformed but essentially incompressible. Traditional linear theory of elasticit…

Surface sulci in squeezed soft solids
Tuomas Tallinen, John S. Biggins, L. Mahadevan
The squeezing of soft solids, the constrained growth of biological tissues, and the swelling of soft elastic solids such as gels can generate large compressive stresses at their su…
