Curvature-induced stiffness and the spatial variation of wavelength in wrinkled sheets.

Wrinkle patterns in compressed thin sheets are ubiquitous in nature and technology, from the furrows on our foreheads to crinkly plant leaves, from ripples on plastic-wrapped objects to the protein film on milk. The current understanding of an elementary descriptor of wrinkles-their wavelength-is re...
