Localized and extended deformations of elastic shells.
The dried raisin, the crushed soda can, and the collapsed bicycle inner tube exemplify the nonlinear mechanical response of naturally curved elastic surfaces with different intrinsic curvatures to a variety of different external loads. To understand the formation and evolution of these features in a minimal setting, we consider a simple assay: the response of curved surfaces to point indentatio...
متن کاملA simplified model for elastic thin shells
We introduce a simplified model for the minimization of the elastic energy in thin shells. This model is not obtained by an asymptotic analysis. The thickness of the shell remains a parameter as in Reisner-Mindlin’s model for plates and Koiter’s model for shells in the linear case. The simplified model admits always minimizers by contrast with the original one. We show the relevance of our appr...
متن کاملThin-plate Spline Modelling of Elastic Deformations in Fingerprints
This paper presents a novel minutiae matching method that describes elastic distortions by means of a thin-plate spline model and uses that model to normalize the shape of the test fingerprint with respect to the template. The method first determines possible matching minutiae pairs by means of comparing local neighborhoods of the minutiae. Next, a thin-plate spline model is used to describe th...
متن کاملFingerprint matching by thin-plate spline modelling of elastic deformations
This paper presents a novel minutiae matching method that describes elastic distortions in 4ngerprints by means of a thin-plate spline model, which is estimated using a local and a global matching stage. After registration of the 4ngerprints according to the estimated model, the number of matching minutiae can be counted using very tight matching thresholds. For deformed 4ngerprints, the algori...
متن کاملHomogenized Elastic Properties of Graphene for Small Deformations
In this paper, we provide the quantification of the linear and non-linear elastic mechanical properties of graphene based upon the judicious combination of molecular mechanics simulation results and homogenization methods. We clarify the influence on computed results by the main model features, such as specimen size, chirality of microstructure, the effect of chosen boundary conditions (imposed...
