Equilibria and Instabilities of a Slinky: Discrete Model
Douglas P. Holmes, Andy D. Borum, Billy F. Moore +2
The Slinky is a well-known example of a highly flexible helical spring, exhibiting large, geometrically nonlinear deformations from minimal applied forces. By considering it as a s…
Effects of Substrate Defects on Lipid Bilayer Compression Dynamics
Austin Fergusson, Ravi Kappiyoor, Ganesh Balasubramanian +2
In vivo and in vitro lipid bilayers are commonly supported by subcellular structures, particles, and artificial substrates. Deformation of the underlying structure can lead to larg…
Extended Lubrication Theory: Improved Estimates of Flow in Channels with Variable Geometry
Behrouz Tavakol, Guillaume Froehlicher, Douglas P. Holmes +1
Lubrication theory is broadly applicable to the flow characterization of thin fluid films and the motion of particles near surfaces. We offer an extension to lubrication theory by…
