Edge wrinkling in elastically supported pre-stressed incompressible isotropic plates (2016)
Journal Article
Destrade, M., Fu, Y., & Nobili, A. (2016). Edge wrinkling in elastically supported pre-stressed incompressible isotropic plates. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 20160410 -?. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2016.0410

The equations governing the appearance of flexural static perturbations at the edge of a semi-infinite thin elastic isotropic plate, subjected to a state of homogeneous bi-axial pre-stress, are derived and solved. The plate is incompressible and supp... Read More about Edge wrinkling in elastically supported pre-stressed incompressible isotropic plates.

Localized bulging in an inflated cylindrical tube of arbitrary thickness - the effect of bending stiffness (2016)
Journal Article
Francisco, G., Liu, J., & Fu, Y. (2016). Localized bulging in an inflated cylindrical tube of arbitrary thickness - the effect of bending stiffness. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 45-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2016.02.027

We study localized bulging of a cylindrical hyperelastic tube of arbitrary thickness when it is subjected to the combined action of inflation and axial extension. It is shown that with the internal pressure P and resultant axial force F viewed as fun...

Shape bifurcation of a pressurized ellipsoidal balloon (2016)
Journal Article
Geng, Y., Huang, J., & Fu, Y. (2016). Shape bifurcation of a pressurized ellipsoidal balloon. International Journal of Engineering Science, 115-125. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2016.01.003

It is well-known that for most spherical and cylindrical rubber balloons the pressure versus volume curve associated with uniform inflation both has an N-shape, but their shape bifurcation has different characters: whereas a spherical balloon tends t...
