Computational bifurcation analysis of hyperelastic thin shells
Zhaowei Liu, Andrew McBride, Abhishek Ghosh +5
The inflation of hyperelastic thin shells is an important and highly nonlinear problem that arises in multiple engineering applications involving severe kinematic and constitutive…
Vibration Analysis of Piezoelectric Kirchhoff-Love Shells based on Catmull-Clark Subdivision Surfaces
Zhaowei Liu, Andrew McBride, Prashant Saxena +3
An isogeometric Galerkin approach for analysing the free vibrations of piezoelectric shells is presented. The shell kinematics is specialised to infinitesimal deformations and foll…
Modelling instabilities in electroelastic and magnetoelastic membranes: a very brief review
Prashant Saxena
The current state of the art for analytical and computational modelling of deformation in nonlinear electroelastic and magnetoelastic membranes is reviewed. A general framework and…
Growth induced instabilities in a circular hyperelastic plate
Sumit Mehta, Gangadharan Raju, Prashant Saxena
In this work, we have explored growth-induced mechanical instability in an isotropic circular hyperelastic plate. Consistent two-dimensional governing equations for a plate under a…
Buckling of chiral rods due to coupled axial and rotational growth
Satya Prakash Pradhan, Prashant Saxena
We present a growth model for special Cosserat rods that allows for induced rotation of cross-sections. The growth law considers two controls, one for lengthwise growth and other f…
Coupled electro-elastic deformation and instabilities of a toroidal membrane
Zhaowei Liu, Andrew McBride, Basant Lal Sharma +2
We analyse here the problem of large deformation of dielectric elastomeric membranes under coupled electromechanical loading. Extremely large deformations (enclosed volume changes…
