Ripplocations: a progress report
MW Barsoum - Frontiers in Materials, 2020 - frontiersin.org
It has long been recognized that when the basal planes of crystalline layered solids were
loaded edge-on in compression they failed by the formation of kink bands. And while no …

Collagen fibrils in functionally distinct tendons have differing structural responses to tendon rupture and fatigue loading
In this study we investigate relationships between the nanoscale structure of collagen fibrils
and the macroscale functional response of collagenous tissues. To do so, we study two …

Post-bifurcation analysis of a thin-walled hyperelastic tube under inflation
We consider the problem of bulging, or necking, of an infinite thin-walled hyperelastic tube
that is inflated by an internal pressure, with the axial stretch at infinity maintained at unity. We …

Kinematic and tectonic implications of crenulation cleavage, kink bands, and mesoscopic folds in the Baraboo Syncline, Wisconsin (∼ 1.45 Ga Picuris Orogen)
S Marshak, MS Wilkerson, J Defrates - Journal of Structural Geology, 2024 - Elsevier
Abstract The Baraboo Syncline of Wisconsin is a south-verging, regional-scale fold that
formed during the∼ 1.45 Ga Picuris Orogeny. It involves Mesoproterozoic quartzite and …
