An elastic sheet lying on the surface of a liquid, if axially compressed, shows a transition from a smooth sinusoidal pattern to a well localized fold. This wrinkle-to-fold transition is a manifestation of a localized buckling. The symmetric and antisymmetric shapes of the fold have recently been described by Diamant and Witten (2011), who found two exact solutions of the nonlinear equilibrium equations. In this Note, we show that these solutions can be generalized to a continuous family of solutions, which yields non symmetric shapes of the fold. We prove that non symmetric solutions also describe the shape of a soft strip withdrawn from a liquid bath, a physical problem that allows to easily observe portions of non symmetric profiles.

Predicting the large-amplitude deformations of thin elastic sheets is difficult due to the complications of self-contact, geometric nonlinearities, and a multitude of low-lying energy states. We study a simple two-dimensional setting where an annular
polymer sheet floating on an air-water interface is subjected to different tensions on the inner and outer rims. The sheet folds and wrinkles into many distinct morphologies that break axisymmetry. These states can be understood within a recent geometric approach for determining the gross shape of extremely bendable yet inextensible sheets by extremizing an appropriate area functional. Our analysis explains the remarkable feature that the observed buckling transitions between wrinkled and folded shapes are insensitive to the bending rigidity of the sheet.
We report on normal stress field measurements at the multicontact interface between a rough elastomeric film and a smooth glass sphere under normal load, using an original MEMS-based stress sensing device. These measurements are compared to Finite El
ements Method calculations with boundary conditions obeying locally Amontons rigid-plastic-like friction law with a uniform friction coefficient. In dry contact conditions, significant deviations are observed which decrease with increasing load. In lubricated conditions, the measured profile recovers almost perfectly the predicted profile. These results are interpreted as a consequence of the finite compliance of the multicontact interface, a mechanism which is not taken into account in Amontons law.
The deformation of a fluid-fluid interface due to the thermocapillary stress induced by a continuous Gaussian laser wave is investigated analytically. We show that the direction of deformation of the liquid interface strongly depends on the viscositi
es and the thicknesses of the involved liquid layers. We first investigate the case of an interface separating two different liquid layers while a second part is dedicated to a thin film squeezed by two external layers of same liquid. These results are predictive for applications fields where localized thermocapillary stresses are used to produce flows or to deform interfaces in presence of confinement, such as optofluidics.
The classical flexure problem of non-linear incompressible elasticity is revisited assuming that the bending angle suffered by the block is specified instead of the usual applied moment. The general moment-bending angle relationship is then obtained
and is shown to be dependent on only one non-dimensional parameter: the product of the aspect ratio of the block and the bending angle. A Maclaurin series expansion in this parameter is then found. The first-order term is proportional to $mu$, the shear modulus of linear elasticity; the second-order term is identically zero, because the moment is an odd function of the angle; and the third-order term is proportional to $mu(4beta -1)$, where $beta$ is the non-linear shear coefficient, involving third-order and fourth-order elasticity constants. It follows that bending experiments provide an alternative way of estimating this coefficient, and the results of one such experiment are presented. In passing, the coefficients of Rivlins expansion in exact non-linear elasticity are connected to those of Landau in weakly (fourth-order) non-linear elasticity.
The thermal degradation of a graphene-like two-dimensional triangular membrane with bonds undergoing temperature-induced scission is studied by means of Molecular Dynamics simulation using Langevin thermostat. We demonstrate that the probability dist
ribution of breaking bonds is highly peaked at the rim of the membrane sheet at lower temperature whereas at higher temperature bonds break at random anywhere in the hexagonal flake. The mean breakage time $tau$ is found to decrease with the total number of network nodes $N$ by a power law $tau propto N^{-0.5}$ and reveals an Arrhenian dependence on temperature $T$. Scission times are themselves exponentially distributed. The fragmentation kinetics of the average number of clusters can be described by first-order chemical reactions between network nodes $n_i$ of different coordination. The distribution of fragments sizes evolves with time elapsed from a $delta$-function through a bimodal one into a single-peaked again at late times. Our simulation results are complemented by a set of $1^{st}$-order kinetic differential equations for $n_i$ which can be solved exactly and compared to data derived from the computer experiment, providing deeper insight into the thermolysis mechanism.
