Review article on elastic instabilities, microstructure transformations, and pattern formations in soft materials

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.

Read here: Elastic instabilities, microstructure transformations, and pattern formations in soft materials - ScienceDirect

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
