Self-contact and instabilities in the anisotropic growth of elastic membranes
Norbert Stoop, Falk K. Wittel, Martine Ben Amar +2
We investigate the morphology of thin discs and rings growing in the circumferential direction. Recent analytical results suggest that this growth produces symmetric excess cones (…
