Post-bifurcation behaviour of elasto-capillary necking and bulging in soft tubes (2021)
Journal Article
Fu. (2021). Post-bifurcation behaviour of elasto-capillary necking and bulging in soft tubes. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1-21. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2021.0311

Previous linear bifurcation analyses have evidenced that an axially stretched soft cylindrical tube may develop an infinite-wavelength (localized) instability when one or both of its lateral surfaces are under sufficient surface tension. Phase transi... Read More about Post-bifurcation behaviour of elasto-capillary necking and bulging in soft tubes.

On propagation of waves in pressurized fiber-reinforced hyperelastic tubes based on a reduced model (2021)
Journal Article
Fu. (2021). On propagation of waves in pressurized fiber-reinforced hyperelastic tubes based on a reduced model. Journal of Sound and Vibration, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2021.116476

A refined dynamic finite-strain shell theory for incompressible hyperelastic materials was developed by the authors recently. In this paper, we first derive the associated linearized incremental theory, and then use it to investigate wave propagation...

Post-buckling of an elastic half-space coated by double layers (2021)
Journal Article
Fu. (2021). Post-buckling of an elastic half-space coated by double layers. Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids, https://doi.org/10.1177/10812865211010886

We investigate the buckling and post-buckling properties of a hyperelastic half-space coated by two hyperelastic layers when the composite structure is subjected to a uniaxial compression. In the case of a half-space coated with a single layer, it is... Read More about Post-buckling of an elastic half-space coated by double layers.

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>We provide an extension to previous analysis of the localised beading instability of soft slender tubes under surface tension and axial stretching. The primary questions pondered here are as follows: under wha...

Localised bifurcation in soft cylindrical tubes under axial stretching and surface tension (2021)
Journal Article
Fu. (2021). Localised bifurcation in soft cylindrical tubes under axial stretching and surface tension. International Journal of Solids and Structures, 23- 33. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijsolstr.2021.02.007

We investigate localised bulging or necking in an incompressible, hyperelastic cylindrical tube under axial stretching and surface tension. Three cases are considered in which the tube is subjected to different constraints. In case 1 the inner and ou...

A weakly nonlinear analysis is conducted for localized necking of a hyperelastic solid cylinder under axial stretching based on the exact theory of nonlinear elasticity. The amplitude equation derived is shown to be consistent with the one-dimensiona...

Necking, Beading, and Bulging in Soft Elastic Cylinders (2021)
Journal Article
Fu. (2021). Necking, Beading, and Bulging in Soft Elastic Cylinders. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2020.104250

Due to surface tension, a beading instability takes place in a long enough fluid column that results in the breakup of the column and the formation of smaller packets with the same overall volume but a smaller surface area. Similarly, a soft elastic... Read More about Necking, Beading, and Bulging in Soft Elastic Cylinders.
