In rotational symmetric gel sheets, we study the sheets with in-plane strain and deduce the equilibrium equations and … the boundary conditions. The boundary is found to play an important role in the equilibrium configuration of the gel sheet … stretching can be changed by the boundary. In gel sheets with a boundary, the forming mechanism of equilibrium configuration is …
