Correction for ‘Pure measures of bending for soft plates’ by Epifanio G. Virga, Soft Matter, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1039/D3SM01123B.
If the top of the nightcap in Fig. 3 is regular, that is, with a well defined tangent plane, symmetry requires the latter to be parallel to the (x1, x2) plane, and so ∇y must be the identity in that plane. From (35), this implies that and z′(0) = 0, meaning that λ1(0) = λ2(0) = 1.
The incorrect statement that featured in the published paper had no consequences on either the development or conclusions of the work.
