Soft coring: how to get a clarinet out of a flute?
Frederic Lechenault, Iyad Ramdane, Sebastien Moulinet +2
Cutting mozzarella with a dull blade results in poorly shaped slices: the process occurs in a configuration so deformed as to yield unexpectedly curved surfaces. We study the rich…
Strain induced strengthening of soft thermoplastic polyurethanes under cyclic deformation
Giorgia Scetta, Jianzhu Ju, Nathan Selles +3
We investigate the cyclic mechanical behavior in uniaxial tension of three different commercial thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU) often considered as a sustainable replac…
Nonlinear Viscoelastic Modeling of Adhesive Failure for Polyacrylate Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives
Chopin Julien, Villey Richard, Yarusso David +3
We investigate experimentally the adherence energy of model polyacrylate Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs) with combined large strain rheological measurements in uniaxial ext…
Roughness of oxide glass subcritical fracture surfaces
Gael Pallares, Frederic Lechenault, Matthieu George +4
An original setup combining a very stable loading stage, an atomic force microscope and an environmental chamber, allows to obtain very stable sub-critical fracture propagation in…
Anisotropic super-attenuation of capillary waves on driven glass interfaces
Bruno Bresson, Coralie Brun, Xavier Buet +11
Metrological AFM measurements are performed on the silica glass interfaces of photonic band-gap fibres and hollow capillaries. The freezing of attenuated out-of-equilibrium capilla…
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…
