Mechanics of Balloons
This lecture covers the construction of an axisymmetric membrane model for balloons, the parameterization of balloon configurations, strain measures, rubber constitutive behavior modeling, numerical solutions for equilibrium equations, and the interpretation of internal stress. The instructor also discusses the derivation of equilibrium equations, homogeneous solutions, and the benefits of the energy approach in analyzing non-linear membranes.
