个人简介
His research centres on elastic instabilities, or how soft objects undergo abrupt shape changes in response to external loads or intrinsic transformations. Driven by the burgeoning field of ‘extreme mechanics’, which harnesses elastic instabilities such as buckling and wrinkling for novel functionalities, he seeks to develop quantitative understanding of features that are of direct relevance to engineering applications; particularly dynamic effects and how systems behave when pushed far beyond the threshold of instability. His general methodology is to analyse carefully-constructed model systems using a combination of analytical techniques, numerical simulations and desktop-scale experiments, recognising this initial abstraction stage as a powerful tool to clarify physical phenomena and motivate the overall modelling process.
Michael is particularly interested in slender structures (rods, plates, shells) that possess complex internal structure: the material/geometric properties vary significantly over the thickness/width, or non-uniform residual stresses arise due to active processes such as thermal expansion, swelling, or growth. Examples include randomly crumpled elastic sheets, which are characterised by a permanent, geometrically ‘disordered’ network of creases; and biofilaments resulting from molecular assembly such as the bacterial flagellar filament.
