Analytic Description of the Equilibrium Shapes of Elastic Rings Under Uniform Hydrostatic Pressure

The parametric equations of the plane curves determining the equilibrium shapes that a uniform inextensible elastic ring could take subject to a uniform hydrostatic pressure are presented in an

Deformation of a Circular Elastic Tube between Two Parallel Bars: Quasi-Analytical Geometrical Ring Models

Several engineering problems are confronted with elastic tubes. In the current work, homothetic quasi-analytical geometrical ring models, ellipse, stadium, and peanut, are formulated allowing a

The \theta-formulation of the 2D elastica -- Buckling and boundary layer theory

The equations of a planar elastica under pressure can be rewritten in a useful form by parametrising the variables in terms of the local orientation angle, $\theta$, instead of the arc length. This

Universal Wrinkling of Supported Elastic Rings.

An exactly solvable family of models describing the wrinkling of substrate-supported inextensible elastic rings under compression is identified. The resulting wrinkle profiles are shown to be related

Equilibrium shapes of cylindrical rotating liquid drops

We will consider surfaces whose mean curvature at a point is a linear function of the square of the distance from that point to the vertical axis. We restrict ourselves here to surfaces which are

Postbuckling up to Collapse of Polar Orthotropic Linearly Elastic Rings Subjected to External Pressure

Post-buckling and collapse phenomenon of a thick closed ring subjected to external pressure on its outer surface is analyzed in this research. Ring is made of a linearly elastic polar orthotropic

Area-constrained planar elastica.

It is found that the area constraint gives rise to equilibria with remarkable geometrical properties; not only can the Euler-Lagrange equation be integrated to provide a quadrature for the curvature but, in addition, the embedding itself can be expressed as a local function of the curvatures.

Elastica hypoarealis

Abstract:We examine the equilibria of a rigid loop in the plane, characterized by an energy functional quadratic in the curvature, subject to the constraints of fixed length and fixed enclosed area.

Cylindrical equilibrium shapes of fluid membranes

Within the framework of the well-known curvature models, a fluid lipid bilayer membrane is regarded as a surface embedded in the three-dimensional Euclidean space whose equilibrium shapes are

Representation formula for the critical points of the Tadjbakhsh-Odeh functional and its application

In order to study the buckled states of an elastic ring under uniform pressure, Tadjbakhsh and Odeh [14] introduced an energy functional which is a linear combination of the total squared curvature

Laplace pressure as a surface stress in fluid vesicles

Consider a surface enclosing a fixed volume, described by a free energy depending only on the local geometry; for example, the Canham–Helfrich energy quadratic in the mean curvature describes a fluid

Buckling and collapse of open and closed cylindrical shells

The buckling of a finite section of a cylindrical shell resembling a two-dimensional contact lens, and the collapse of a tubular shell of infinite extent are considered. The deformation is due,

Bifurcation theory applied to buckling states of a cylindrical shell

Veins, bronchii, and many other vessels in the human body are flexible enough to be capable of collapse if submitted to suitable applied external and internal loads. One way to describe this

The membrane shape equation (7, 8) describes the equilibrium shapes of a biomembrane, assumed as a bilayer of amphiphilic molecules, in terms of the mean and Gaussian curvatures of its
