The wrinkle pattern exhibited upon stretching a rectangular sheet has attracted considerable interest in the "extreme mechanics" community. Nevertheless, key aspects of this notable phenomenon remain elusive. Specifically-what is the origin of the compressive stress underlying the instability of the planar state? what is the nature of the ensuing bifurcation? how does the shape evolve from a critical, near-threshold regime to a fully developed pattern of parallel wrinkles that permeate most of the sheet?
