Inhomogeneous thinning of dielectric membranes under uniaxial tension and electric fields

Xiang Yu, Yibin Fu

Dielectric elastomers exhibit rich electromechanical instabilities arising from the coupling between mechanical deformations and electric fields. A widely used approach for analyzi…

Analysis of axisymmetric necking of a circular dielectric membrane based on a one-dimensional model

Xiang Yu, Yibin Fu

To facilitate the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the electric breakdown of dielectric elastomers, we derive a one-dimensional (1d) model for axisymmetric necking in a d…

On the incremental equations in surface elasticity

Xiang Yu, Yibin Fu

We derive the incremental equations for a hyperelastic solid that incorporate surface tension effect by assuming that the surface energy is a general function of the surface deform…

Axisymmetric necking of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane

Yibin Fu, Xiang Yu

We investigate the stability of a circular electrodes-coated dielectric membrane under the combined action of an electric field and all-round in-plane tension. It is known that suc…

A one-dimensional model for axisymmetric deformations of an inflated hyperelastic tube of finite wall thickness

Xiang Yu, Yibin Fu

We derive a one-dimensional (1d) model for the analysis of bulging or necking in an inflated hyperelastic tube of {\it finite wall thickness} from the three-dimensional finite elas…

A refined model for the buckling of film/substrate bilayers

Guang Wang, Yang Liu, Yibin Fu

The classical reduced model for a film/substrate bilayer is one in which the film is governed by the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation and the substrate is replaced by an array of spri…
