Intermittent stick-slip dynamics during the peeling of an adhesive tape from a roller
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Marie-Julie Dalbe, Claudia Guerra +4
We study experimentally the fracture dynamics during the peeling at a constant velocity of a roller adhesive tape mounted on a freely rotating pulley. Thanks to a high speed camera…
Attractive and repulsive cracks in a heterogeneous material
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Guillaume Huillard, Loïc Vanel +1
We study experimentally the paths of an assembly of cracks growing in interaction in a heterogeneous two-dimensional elastic brittle material submitted to uniaxial stress. For a gi…
Slow crack growth in polycarbonate films
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Stéphane Santucci, Loic Vanel +1
We study experimentally the slow growth of a single crack in polycarbonate films submitted to uniaxial and constant imposed stress. The specificity of fracture in polycarbonate fil…
Imaging the stick-slip peeling of an adhesive tape under a constant load
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Matteo Ciccotti, Loic Vanel
Using a high speed camera, we study the peeling dynamics of an adhesive tape under a constant load with a special focus on the so-called stick-slip regime of the peeling. It is the…
Subcritical crack growth in fibrous materials
Stéphane Santucci, Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Stéphanie Deschanel +2
We present experiments on the slow growth of a single crack in a fax paper sheet submitted to a constant force . We find that statistically averaged crack growth curves can be d…
Super-Arrhenius dynamics for sub-critical crack growth in disordered brittle media
P. -P. Cortet, L. Vanel, S. Ciliberto
Taking into account stress fluctuations due to thermal noise, we study thermally activated irreversible crack growth in disordered media. The influence of material disorder on sub-…
