Curvature suppresses tensile wrinkles
Transverse wrinkles usually occur in a uniaxially tensile elastic membrane and will be smoothed upon excess stretching. This instability-restabilization response (isola-center bifurcation) can originate from the nonlinear competition between stretching energy and bending energy. Here, we find a crucial factor, the curvature, which can control effectively and precisely the wrinkling and smoothing regimes. When the sheet is bent, the regime of wrinkling amplitude versus membrane elongation is narrowed, with local wrinkling instability coupled with global bending.

Post-doc position in microstructure modeling at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore
The Additive Microstructure Engineering Laboratory (AddME Lab) in the school of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NTU (Singapore) is a young, diverse, and interdisciplinary research group with interests in in-line microstructure control and assessment during selective laser melting (SLM) processes. In this framework, we are collaborating with the Institute of High Performance Computing under the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), to simulate the microstructure of metals produced during SLM.
