Abstract

Growth-induced morphological instabilities of film/substrate bilayers are critical for certain (mal)functionalities of biological systems. Understanding the mechanics helps in developing new diagnostics andin designing bio-inspired engineering products, e.g. artificial digital skin.

We address gaps in the understanding of the nonlinear mechanics of growing bilayers in the critical and post-critical regimes, particularly when:
-the substrate grows much faster than the thin film, and
-the film and substrate have comparable stiffnesses
