Tension-dependent transverse buckles and wrinkles in twisted elastic sheets
We investigate with experiments the twist induced transverse buckling instabilities of an elastic sheet of length L, width W , and thickness t, that is clamped at two opposite ends while held under a tension T . Above a critical tension Tλ and critical twist angle ηtr, we find that the sheet buckles with a mode number n ≥ 1 transverse to the axis of twist. Three distinct buckling regimes charac...
متن کاملRadial cracks in perforated thin sheets.
When a rigid cone is slowly pushed through a thin elastic sheet, the material breaks, exhibiting a network of cracks expanding in the radial direction. Experiments conducted with aluminum sheets show that the number of cracks is selected at the beginning of the perforation process and then remains stable. A simple model predicts the number of cracks as the result of a competition between the el...
متن کاملStress focusing in elastic sheets
We review recent progress in understanding phenomena like crumpling, in which elastic membranes or sheets subject to structureless forces develop sharply curved structure over a small fraction of their surface. In the limit of zero thickness these structures become singular. After reviewing several related phenomena we note the physical elements that give rise to the singular behavior: elastici...
متن کاملReshaping nemato-elastic sheets.
We consider three-dimensional reshaping of thin nemato-elastic sheets containing half-charged defects upon nematic-isotropic transition. Gaussian curvature, that can be evaluated analytically when the nematic texture is known, differs from zero in the entire domain and has a dipole or hexapole singularity, respectively, at defects of positive or negative sign. The latter kind of defects appears...
متن کاملCracking sheets: oscillatory fracture paths in thin elastic sheets.
When a blunt cutting tool is forced through a thin elastic sheet that is held along its lateral boundaries, a strikingly regular wavy cut can be left behind, examples of which are presented in Fig. 1. The thin film is brittle, hence it undergoes negligible irreversible deformation besides fracture. For tools much wider than the film’s thickness, the crack tip follows a highly reproducible nonsi...
