Immersed Cantilever Apparatus for Mechanics and Microscopy

Akash Singh, Michio Tateno, Gilles Simon +2

We present here a novel cantilever based apparatus to perform translational stress or strain controlled rheology in very soft solids, and obtain simultaneous confocal imaging of th…

Bending to kinetic energy transfer in adhesive peel front micro-instability

V. De Zotti, K. Rapina, P. -P. Cortet +2

We report an extensive experimental study of a detachment front dynamics instability, appearing at microscopic scales during the peeling of adhesive tapes. The amplitude of this in…

A Multi-Channel Setup to Study Fractures in Scintillators

A. Tantot, C. Bouard, R. Briche +6

To investigate fractoluminescence in scintillating crystals used for particle detection, we have developed a multi-channel setup built around samples of double-cleavage drilled com…

Multiscale Stick-Slip Dynamics of Adhesive Tape Peeling

Marie-Julie Dalbe, Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Matteo Ciccotti +2

Using a high-speed camera, we follow the propagation of the detachment front during the peeling of an adhesive tape from a flat surface. In a given range of peeling velocity, this…

Rate-dependent elastic hysteresis during the peeling of Pressure Sensitive Adhesives

Richard Villey, Costantino Creton, Pierre-Philippe Cortet +7

The modelling of the adherence energy during peeling of Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) has received much attention since the 1950's, uncovering several factors that aim at expl…

Strong dynamical effects during stick-slip adhesive peeling

Marie-Julie Dalbe, Stéphane Santucci, Pierre-Philippe Cortet +1

We consider the classical problem of the stick-slip dynamics observed when peeling a roller adhesive tape at a constant velocity. From fast imaging recordings, we extract the depen…
