Deterministic Order in Surface Micro-Topologies through Sequential Wrinkling
Advanced Materials, 24(40), 5441–5446.
author keywords: micropatterns; sequential wrinkling; iCVD; copolymer coatings; thin films; modulus measurement
MeSH headings : Dimethylpolysiloxanes / chemistry; Elasticity; Electronics; Gold / chemistry; Interferometry; Light; Methacrylates / chemistry; Microfluidic Analytical Techniques; Surface Properties
TL;DR:
Ordered herringbone patterns with deterministic long and short wavelengths are created using a sequential wrinkling strategy (SWS) that provides a new method for measuring thin-film mechanical properties simply through the wrinkling metrology without measurement of film thickness.

Mechanics of Nanoindentation on a Monolayer of Colloidal Hollow Nanoparticles
Langmuir, 27(17), 10492–10500.
MeSH headings : Colloids / chemistry; Membranes, Artificial; Nanoparticles / chemistry; Particle Size; Porosity; Silicon Dioxide / chemistry; Surface Properties
TL;DR:
It is found that for a constant film density with the same (t)/(R) of the constituent nanoparticles, smaller particles with a thinner shell can provide a higher effective indentation modulus, compared to their larger diameter and thicker shell counterparts.

Anisotropic buckling patterns in spheroidal film/substrate systems and their implications in some natural and biological systems
Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 57(9), 1470–1484.
author keywords: Buckling; Spheroid; Thin film; Morphogenesis
TL;DR:
The quantitative mechanics framework established herein not only has important implications on the morphogenesis of various fruits, vegetables, nuts, eggs, tissues, and animal body parts, but also could guide the three-dimensional micro-fabrications via controlled self-assembly on curved substrate surfaces.

Mechanical modeling of a wrinkled fingertip immersed in water
Acta Biomaterialia, 6(4), 1487–1496.
author keywords: Skin wrinkles; Surface topography; Modeling; Finite element analysis
MeSH headings : Biomechanical Phenomena; Computer Simulation; Cosmetics; Fingers / physiology; Finite Element Analysis; Humans; Male; Models, Biological; Skin Aging / physiology; Water
TL;DR:
Simulation results demonstrate that the stiffness of the stratum corneum and the dermal layer in the skin has a large effect on the wrinkling behavior, which agrees well with the analytical predictions.
