论文摘要
我们认为正常使用中出现在某些花园软管上的正弦起伏。我们提出了一个解释，并为此现象提供了模型，并与生物结构和自弯曲建立联系。我们将观察结果与模型预测进行了比较，并提出了在变形材料领域中的潜在应用。
We consider sinusoidal undulations which appear on certain garden hoses under normal use. We propose an explanation and provide a model for this phenomenon, and make a connection with biological structures as well as self-buckling. We compare observations with model predictions, and suggest potential applications in the area of shape-changing materials.
