Wrinkling of pressurized elastic shells
We study the formation of localized structures formed by the point loading of an internally pressurized elastic shell. While unpressurized shells (such as a ping pong ball) buckle into polygonal structures, we show that pressurized shells are subject to a wrinkling instability. We present scaling la...
