Necking of thin-walled cylinders via bifurcation of incompressible nonlinear elastic solids
R Springhetti, G Rossetto, D Bigoni - Soft Matter, 2024 - pubs.rsc.org
Necking localization under quasi-static uniaxial tension is experimentally observed in ductile
thin-walled cylindrical tubes, made of soft polypropylene. Necking nucleates at multiple …

Elephant trunk wrinkles: A mathematical model of function and form
A remarkable feature of the elephant trunk is the pronounced wrinkling that enables its great
flexibility. Here, we devise a general mathematical model that accounts for characteristic …
