Axisymmetric membrane nano-resonators: A comparison of nonlinear reduced-order models

Safvan Palathingal, Dominic Vella

The shift in the backbone of the frequency--response curve and the `jump-down' observed at a critical frequency observed in nano-resonators are caused by their nonlinear mechanical…

Wrinkling composite sheets

Marc Suñé, Cristóbal Arratia, A. F. Bonfils +2

We examine the buckling shape and critical compression of confined inhomogeneous composite sheets lying on a liquid foundation. The buckling modes are controlled by the bending sti…

Substrate Curvature Curbs the Coffee Ring Effect

John McCarthy, Alfonso Castrejón-Pita, Mokhtar Adda-Bedia +1

"When the liquid phase of a particle-laden droplet evaporates, a ring of solute is typically formed - what has become known as the "coffee ring effect". A key focus of recent work…

Flattened and wrinkled encapsulated droplets: Shape-morphing induced by gravity and evaporation

Davide Riccobelli, Hedar H. Al-Terke, Päivi Laaksonen +5

We report surprising morphological changes of suspension droplets (containing class II hydrophobin protein HFBI from Trichoderma reesei and water) as they evaporate with a contact…

Delamination from an adhesive sphere: Curvature-induced dewetting versus buckling

Finn Box, Lucie Domino, Tiago Outerelo Corvo +4

Everyday experience confirms the tendency of adhesive films to detach from spheroidal regions of rigid substrates -- what is a petty frustration when placing a sticky bandage onto…

Shape-morphing structures based on perforated kirigami

Yunlan Zhang, Jingyi Yang, Mingchao Liu +1

Shape-morphing structures, which are able to change their shapes from one state to another, are important in a wide range of engineering applications. A popular scenario is morphin…
