Can non-linear elasticity explain contact-line roughness at depinning?
Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Joerg Wiese, Elie Raphael +1
We examine whether cubic non-linearities, allowed by symmetry in the elastic energy of a contact line, may result in a different universality class at depinning. Standard linear el…

Sliding friction between an elastomer network and a grafted polymer layer: the role of cooperative effects
Thomas Vilmin, Elie Raphael
We study the friction between a flat solid surface where polymer chains have been end-grafted and a cross-linked elastomer at low sliding velocity. The contribution of isolated gra…
