Active matter invasion of a viscous fluid: unstable sheets and a no-flow theorem
Christopher J. Miles, Arthur A. Evans, Michael J. Shelley +1
We investigate the dynamics of a dilute suspension of hydrodynamically interacting motile or immotile stress-generating swimmers or particles as they invade a surrounding viscous f…
Sculpting the Vertex: Manipulating the Configuration Space Topography and Topology of Origami Vertices to Design Mechanical Robustness
Bin Liu, Arthur A. Evans, Jesse L. Silverberg +4
The geometric, aesthetic, and mathematical elegance of origami is being recognized as a powerful pathway to self-assembly of micro and nano-scale machines with programmable mechani…
Topological mechanics of origami and kirigami
Bryan Gin-ge Chen, Bin Liu, Arthur A. Evans +4
Origami and kirigami have emerged as potential tools for the design of mechanical metamaterials whose properties such as curvature, Poisson ratio, and existence of metastable state…
Lattice Mechanics of Origami Tessellations
Arthur A. Evans, Jesse L. Silverberg, Christian D. Santangelo
Origami-based design holds promise for developing materials whose mechanical properties are tuned by crease patterns introduced to thin sheets. Although there has been heuristic de…
Geometrically controlled snapping transitions in shells with curved creases
Nakul P. Bende, Arthur A. Evans, Sarah Innes-Gold +4
Curvature and mechanics are intimately connected for thin materials, and this coupling between geometry and physical properties is readily seen in folded structures from intestinal…
High-energy deformation of filaments with internal structure and localized torque-induced melting of DNA
Arthur A. Evans, Alex J. Levine
We develop a continuum elastic approach to examining the bending mechanics of semiflexible filaments with a local internal degree of freedom that couples to the bending modulus. We…
