Elastic capsules and shells
theoretical tools to enable the determination of elastic material parameters from analyzing experimental data on capsule shapes during a controlled capsule deformation. Usage as delivery systems also requires [...] buckling of spherical capsules S. Knoche and J. Kierfeld, Soft Matter 10 , 8358-8369 (2014).
