Angle-independent optimal adhesion in plane peeling of thin elastic films at large surface roughnesses
Weilin Deng, Haneesh Kesari
Adhesive peeling of a thin elastic film from a substrate is a classic problem in mechanics. However, many of the investigations on this topic to date have focused on peeling from s…

An accelerometer-only algorithm for determining the acceleration field of a rigid body, with application in studying the mechanics of mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Mohammad Masiur Rahaman, Wenqiang Fang, Alice Lux Fawzi +2
We present an algorithm for determining the acceleration field of a rigid body using measurements from four tri-axial accelerometers. The acceleration field is an important quantit…

Depth-dependent hysteresis in adhesive elastic contacts at large surface roughness
Weilin Deng, Haneesh Kesari
Contact force--indentation depth measurements in contact experiments involving compliant materials, such as polymers and gels, show a hysteresis loop whose size depends on the maxi…
