Presents a quantitative description of the shape, response and stability of conical dislocation in crumpling of paper. Results of deformation; Scaling laws for the size of the core; Characteristics of the geometry of the dislocation away from the core; Interaction between conical dislocations in a simple geometry.
The article summarizes research published in a 2015 issue of "Advanced Materials" concerning the development of a flexible lithium-air battery using paper and lithium foil with a carbon-based ink which was capable of holding a charge even after being bent 1,000 times.
