Dear Colleagues,
We recently published a review article on "Elastic instabilities, microstructure transformations, and pattern formations in soft materials" in Current Opinion in Solid State and Materials Science.
In the paper, we have reviewed the state of the art in:
- Classical buckling in beam-based structure lattices
- Instability-induced microstructure transformations in soft composites
- Wrinkling and folding of the thin film on a complaint soft substrate
- Creasing, fringe, and fingering in soft layers
