How a curved elastic strip opens.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An elastic strip is transversely clamped in a curved frame. The induced curvature decreases as the strip opens and connects to its flat natural shape. Various ribbon profiles are measured and the scaling law for the opening length validates a description where the in-plane stretching gradually relaxes the bending stress. An analytical model of the strip profile is proposed and a quantitative agreement is found with both experiments and simulations of the plates equations. This result provides a unique illustration of smooth nondevelopable solutions in thin sheets.

Buckling of Naturally Curved Elastic Strips: The Ribbon Model Makes a Difference
We analyze the stability of naturally curved, inextensible elastic ribbons. In experiments, we first show that a loop formed using a metallic strip can become unstable if its radius is smaller than its natural radius of curvature (undercurved case): the loop then folds onto itself into a smaller, multiply-covered loop. Conversely, a multi-covered, overcurved metallic strip can unfold dynamicall...
متن کاملA New Temper Rolling Force Model for Dry Thick Strip Considering Fully Elastic Contact
Temper rolling or skin pass rolling is one of cold rolling processes composed of a horizontal pass cold rolling mill stand. In this process, the thick strip is subjected to very light reduction (0.5–4%) in thickness in the presence of high friction amplitudes. One of the basic parameters of strip rolling processes is temper rolling force. A new rolling force model has been proposed for temper r...

متن کاملMagneto-Electro-Thermo-Mechanical Response of a Multiferroic Doubly-Curved Nano-Shell
Free vibration of a simply-supported magneto-electro-elastic doubly-curved nano-shell is studied based on the first-order shear deformation theory in the presence of the rotary inertia effect. To model the electric and magnetic behaviors of the nano-shell, Gauss’s laws for electrostatics and magneto statics are used. By using Navier’s method, the partial differential equations of motion are red...
متن کاملElastic Initial and Post-local Buckling of Profiled through Girders
An experiment investigating the elastic local buckling response of trough girders composed of thin profiled steel sheeting has been undertaken Beam tests were performed to promote initial local buckling in a region of constant moment in the elastic range of structural response. The results of the experiments were compared with an elastic complex semi-analytical finite strip method of analysis, ...
