Primes¶
- Fold
- The ductile-versus-brittle distinction is the fold in two guises, set by the bond-to-stress ratio. Origami, packaging, and biological morphogenesis. A flat sheet becomes a three-dimensional structure through programmed creases; the gut tube folds into villi; the cortex folds into gyri.
This sourceShows cortical gyri and sulci arise as a mechanical folding instability of a constrained growing gray-matter layer — a flat/expanding sheet folding into 3-D form without tearing, the morphogenetic instance of the prime.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
The abstract backs the brain clause: gyri and sulci arise as a mechanical folding instability of a growing cortex, not the ductile/brittle or gut-villus clauses.
“the size, shape, placement and orientation of the folds arise through iterations and variations of an elementary mechanical instability modulated by early fetal brain geometry”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
