Wrinkling Hierarchy in Constrained Thin Sheets from Suspended Graphene to Curtains
We show that thin sheets under boundary confinement spontaneously generate a universal self-similar hierarchy of wrinkles. From simple geometry arguments and energy scalings, we develop a formalism based on wrinklons, the localized transition zone in the merging of two wrinkles, as building blocks o...
