Mechanics of Seashell Growth: Examining the relationship between incompatibility, shape, and internal stress
Seashells are a fascinating example of surface growth in nature. As they develop, both their macroscopic form and their internal microstructure evolve, with the latter transitioning between different layer sizes and orientations during the shell's growth process. Several studies have examined t...
