My name is David Schanuel and I am enrolled in the flexible macroelectronics course taught by professor Teng Li at the University of Maryland College Park. I am enrolled in this class for a couple of reasons, first being the interest in a new field of science and the second being a course that fufills a graduation requirement.
I was working on the problem set for and on question 16 and 17 refers to a paper by Charalmbides, Lund, Evans and McMeeking entitled
To the students of ES 241:
Although finite deformation was introduced in ES 240 (Solid Mechanics), finite deformation is a building block of ES 241. To review the subject, please go over a set of problems compiled by Jim Rice. If you need a reference, see my outline of finite deformation, where you can also find a short list of textbooks.
This set of homework is on mixed mode fracture and interfacial fracture
Buckling delamination, with two slides on 1D vonKarman plates.
A sponge is an elastic solid with connected pores. When immersed in water, the sponge absorbs water. When a saturated sponge is squeezed, water will come out. More generally, the subject is known as diffusion in elastic solids, or elasticity of fluid-infiltrated porous solids, or poroelasticity. The theory has been applied to diverse phenomena. Here are a few examples.
These notes are part of a graduate course on advanced elasticity.
