Non-Linear Finite Element Framework for Large-Strain Wrinkling of Thin-Layer Structures

: Thin-walled lightweight structures begin to wrinkle when they are subjected to in-plane extension, and predicting this phenomenon is a challenging problem in engineering. This paper presents a study of finite-strain wrinkling of membranes using 2D strain gradient elasticity theory. Incorporating strain gradient theor...
