Lattice Model for Production of Gas
M. Marder, Behzad Eftekhari, Tadeusz W Patzek
We define a lattice model for rock, absorbers, and gas that makes it possible to examine the flow of gas to a complicated absorbing boundary over long periods of time. The motivati…
Dynamics of Simple Cracks
Eran Bouchbinder, Jay Fineberg, M. Marder
Cracks are the major vehicle for material failure, and often exhibit rather complex dynamics. The laws that govern their motion have remained an object of constant study for nearly…
Rippling of Graphene
Rebecca C. Thompson-Flagg, Maria J. B. Moura, M. Marder
Meyer et al (2007) found that free-standing graphene sheets, just one atom thick, display spontaneous ripples. The ripples are of order 2-20 Å high and 20-200 Å wide. The sheets in…
Shock wave theory for rupture of rubber
M. Marder
This article presents a theory for the rupture of rubber. Unlike conventional cracks, ruptures in rubber travel faster than the speed of sound, and consist in two oblique shocks th…
Cracks in rubber under tension exceed the shear wave speed
Paul J. Petersan, Robert D. Deegan, M. Marder +1
The shear wave speed is an upper limit for the speed of cracks loaded in tension in linear elastic solids. We have discovered that in a non-linear material, cracks in tension (Mode…
The shape of the edge of a leaf
M. Marder
Leaves and flowers frequently have a characteristic rippling pattern at their edges. Recent experiments found similar patterns in torn plastic. These patterns can be reproduced by…
