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…

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…
