摘要: We present a fully nonlinear model of the elasticity smectic-A elastomers, and compare our results with wide range experimental observations: extreme Poisson ratios, in-plane modulus, modulus before after threshold to layer rotation in response stretches along normal, strain, characteristic, singular layers threshold. calculate x-ray scattering from rotating available data. The is derived two ways: geometrical constraints imposed by on nematic elastomer, application statistical mechanics microscopic effect crosslink points confined corrugated potential.
