Cusp-shaped elastic creases and furrows

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: PRL and collaborators from the Institut University of, Bristol , TW, United Kingdom have published the research: Cusp-Shaped Elastic Creases and Furrows, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 10/Nov/2017
  • what: The authors show experimentally and numerically that both creases and furrows exhibit a universal cusp shape, whose width scales like y3=2 at a distance y from the tip. The authors provide a similarity theory that captures the singular profiles before and after the self-folding bifurcation, and derive the length of the fold from finite deformation elasticity. The authors propose a new . . .
