Elastic-instability triggered pattern formation.
Recent experiments have exploited elastic instabilities in membranes to create complex patterns. However, the rational design of such structures poses many challenges, as they are products of nonlinear elastic behavior. We pose a simple model for determining the orientational order of such patterns using only linear elasticity theory which correctly predicts the outcomes of several experiments....
متن کاملTaming contact line instability for pattern formation
Coating surfaces with different fluids is prone to instability producing inhomogeneous films and patterns. The contact line between the coating fluid and the surface to be coated is host to different instabilities, limiting the use of a variety of coating techniques. Here we take advantage of the instability of a receding contact line towards cusp and droplet formation to produce linear pattern...
متن کاملPattern Formation (ii): the Turing Instability
1. Growing modes in a reaction-diffusion system In this section we summarize the classical linear Turing instability criterion for a reaction-diffusion system. Consider a reaction-diffusion system of 2-species as ∂U ∂t = ∇ · (D1 (U,V )∇U) + f (U,V ) , (1.1) ∂V ∂t = ∇ · (D2 (U,V )∇V ) + g (U,V ) , where U (x,t) ,V (x,t) are concentration for species, D1, D2 diffusion coefficients, f, g reaction ...
متن کاملTopology-generating interfacial pattern formation during liquid metal dealloying
Liquid metal dealloying has emerged as a novel technique to produce topologically complex nanoporous and nanocomposite structures with ultra-high interfacial area and other unique properties relevant for diverse material applications. This process is empirically known to require the selective dissolution of one element of a multicomponent solid alloy into a liquid metal to obtain desirable stru...
متن کاملModulation instability and pattern formation in spatially incoherent light beams.
We report on the experimental observation of modulation instability of partially spatially incoherent light beams in noninstantaneous nonlinear media and show that in such systems patterns can form spontaneously from noise. Incoherent modulation instability occurs above a specific threshold that depends on the coherence properties (correlation distance) of the wave packet and leads to a periodi...
