Elastohydrodynamic lubrication of elliptical contacts for materials of low elastic modulus. 1: Fully flooded conjunction [PDF]
Elastohydrodynamic lubrication concepts of conjunctions of elliptical form are applied to materials of low elastic modulus. The influence of the ellipticity parameter and the dimensionless speed, load, and material parameters on minimum film thickness ...

Blister patterns and energy minimization in compressed thin films on compliant substrates [PDF]
This paper is motivated by the complex blister patterns sometimes seen in thin elastic films on thick, compliant substrates. These patterns are often induced by an elastic misfit which compresses the film.

Instabilities during the evaporation of a film: non glassy polymer + volatile solvent
We consider solutions where the surface tension of the solvent is smaller than the surface tension of the polymer. In an evaporating film, a plume of solvent rich fluid, then induces a local depression in surface tension, and the surface forces tend to ...

Bioinspired Shape‐Memory Hook Fasteners With Programmable Interlocking and Silent Release
Bioinspired hook fasteners made from epoxy shape‐memory polymers are shown to switch between strong, secure attachment and gentle, silent release when heated. By combining programmable geometry and material response, these adaptive fasteners outperform commercial systems in strength and noise control, enabling new solutions for robotics, medical ...
