27. In the analysis of the asymptotic shape of elastic networks in reference [25] (which used the bending energy (16)), it was necessary to use the relation λ = 2κ/√3 in order to get the correct energy for disclinations. The reason for this is that the networks considered were approximately conical in shape in the regions of high energy density.
