| contents | We develop the fundamentals of nonlinear and anisotropic bending behavior of biomimetic scale plates using a combination of analytical modeling, finite element (FE) computations, and motivational experiments. The analytical architecture-property relationships are derived for both synclastic and anticlastic curvatures. The results show that, as the scales engage, both synclastic and anticlastic deformations show non-linear scale contact kinematics and cross-curvature sensitivity of moments resulting in strong curvature-dependent elastic nonlinearity and emergent anisotropy. The anisotropy of bending rigidities and their evolution with curvature are affected by both the direction and magnitude of bending as well as scale geometry parameters, and their distribution on the substrate. Like earlier beam-like substrates, kinematic locked states were found to occur; however, their existence and evolution are also strongly determined by scale geometry and imposed cross-curvatures. This validated model helps us to quantify bending response, locking behavior, and their geometric dependence, paving the way for a deeper understanding of the nature of nonlinearity and anisotropy of these systems. |
