A simplified model for elastic thin shells
We introduce a simplified model for the minimization of the elastic energy in thin shells. This model is not obtained by an asymptotic analysis. The thickness of the shell remains a parameter as in Reisner-Mindlin’s model for plates and Koiter’s model for shells in the linear case. The simplified model admits always minimizers by contrast with the original one. We show the relevance of our appr...
متن کاملFree Vibration Analysis of Microtubules as Orthotropic Elastic Shells Using Stress and Strain Gradient Elasticity Theory
In this paper, vibration of the protein microtubule, one of the most important intracellular elements serving as one of the common components among nanotechnology, biotechnology and mechanics, is investigated using stress and strain gradient elasticity theory and orthotropic elastic shells model. Microtubules in the cell are influenced by internal and external stimulation and play a part in con...
متن کاملElastic limit and strain hardening of thin wires in torsion.
A theory for the size effect in the strength of wires under torsion is reported and compared with data from thin copper wires. Critical thickness theory is solved rigorously and used to validate a useful approximation which is combined with slip-distance theory modified for a finite structure size. Experimental data with high accuracy around and above the elastic limit show excellent agreement ...
متن کاملElastic platonic shells.
On microscopic scales, the crystallinity of flexible tethered or cross-linked membranes determines their mechanical response. We show that by controlling the type, number, and distribution of defects on a spherical elastic shell, it is possible to direct the morphology of these structures. Our numerical simulations show that by deflating a crystalline shell with defects, we can create elastic s...
متن کاملAnticavitation and differential growth in elastic shells
Elastic anticavitation is the phenomenon of a void in an elastic solid collapsing on itself. Under the action of mechanical loading alone typical materials do not admit anticavitation. We study the possibility of anticavitation as a consequence of an imposed differential growth. Working in the geometry of a spherical shell, we seek radial growth functions which cause the shell to deform to a so...
