Bending control and stability of functionally graded dielectric elastomers
(Elsevier, 2021-01-18)A rectangular plate of dielectric elastomer exhibiting gradients of material properties through its thickness will deform inhomogeneously when a potential difference is applied to compliant electrodes on its major surfaces, ... -
Bending instabilities of soft biological tissues
(Elsevier, 2009-12-15)Rubber components and soft biological tissues are often subjected to large bending deformations while 'in service'. The circumferential line elements on the inner face of a bent block can contract up to a certain critical ... -
Wrinkles in the opening angle method
(Elsevier, 2017-06-10)We investigate the stability of the deformation modeled by the opening angle method, often used to give a measure of residual stresses in arteries and other biological soft tubular structures. Specifically, we study the ...
