The effect of surface roughness on the adhesion of elastic solids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We study the influence of surface roughness on the adhesion of elastic solids. Most real surfaces have roughness on many different length scales, and this fact is taken into account in our analysis.

Pulling an intruder from a granular material: a novel depinning experiment

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Two-dimensional impact experiments by Clark et al. [2] identified the source of inertial drag to be caused by ‘collisions’ with a latent force network, leading to large fluctuations of the force experienced by the impactor.
