Nonrigidity of flat ribbons

چکیده

We study ribbons of vanishing Gaussian curvature, i.e., flat ribbons, constructed along a curve in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. In particular, we first investigate to which extent the ruled structure determines ribbon: other words, ask whether for given $\gamma$ and ruling angle (angle between line curve's tangent) there exists well-defined ribbon. It turns out that answer is positive only up an initial condition, expressed by choice normal vector at point. then set infinitely narrow fixed terms energy. By extending well-known formula bending energy rectifying developable, introduced literature Sadowsky 1930, obtain upper bound difference energies two solutions value problem. finally draw further conclusions under some additional assumptions on $\gamma$.

Minimal Flat Knotted Ribbons

This paper gives mathematical models for flat knotted ribbons, and makes specific conjectures for the least length of ribbon (for a given width)) needed to tie the trefoil knot and the figure eight knot. The first conjecture states that (for width one) the least length of ribbon needed to tie an open-ended trefoil knot is

Topological nonrigidity of nonuniform lattices

We say that an arbitrary manifold (M,∂M) is topologically rigid relative to its ends if it satisfies the following condition. If (N, ∂N) is any other manifold with a compact subset C ⊂ N for which a proper homotopy equivalence h : (N, ∂N)→ (M,∂M) is a homeomorphism on ∂N ∪ (N\C), then there is a compact subset K ⊂ N and a proper homotopy ht : (N, ∂N) → (M,∂M) from h to a homeomorphism such that...

Beyond Gödel’s Theorem: Turing Nonrigidity Revisited

In [4] it was argued that incomputability in nature dictates a mathematical model (due to Turing [39]) based on mechanical processes relative to appropriate abstractions of incomputable phenomena. (One should refer to that paper for background historical and technical detail.) For instance, it is Turing definability rather than the more familiar notions of provability, and completeness of axiom...

Rolling ribbons.

We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of rolling elastic ribbons. Particular attention is given to characterizing the steady shapes that arise in static and dynamic rolling configurations. In both cases, above a critical value of the forcing (either gravitational or centrifugal), the ribbon assumes a two-lobed, peanut shape similar to that assumed by ro...

Theory of depletion-induced phase transition from chiral smectic- A twisted ribbons to semi-infinite flat membranes.

We consider a theoretical model for the chiral smectic A twisted ribbons observed in assemblies of fd viruses condensed by depletion forces. The depletion interaction is modeled by an edge energy assumed to be proportional to the depletant polymer in solution. Our model is based on the Helfrich energy for surface bending and the de Gennes model of chiral smectic A liquid crystals with twist pen...
