On the presence of a critical detachment angle in gecko spatula peeling -- A numerical investigation using an adhesive friction model
Saipraneeth Gouravaraju, Roger A. Sauer, Sachin Singh Gautam
A continuum-based computational contact model is employed to study coupled adhesion and friction in gecko spatulae. Nonlinear finite element analysis is carried out to simulate spa…
A modified Coulomb's law for the tangential debonding of osseointegrated implants
Katharina Immel, Thang X. Duong, Vu-Hieu Nguyen +2
Cementless implants are widely used in orthopedic and oral surgery. However, debonding-related failure still occurs at the bone-implant interface. It remains difficult to predict s…
An adaptive space-time phase field formulation for dynamic fracture of brittle shells based on LR NURBS
Karsten Paul, Christopher Zimmermann, Kranthi K. Mandadapu +3
We present an adaptive space-time phase field formulation for dynamic fracture of brittle shells. Their deformation is characterized by the Kirchhoff-Love thin shell theory using a…
A NURBS-based Inverse Analysis for Reconstruction of Nonlinear Deformations of Thin Shell Structures
N. Vu-Bac, T. X. Duong, T. Lahmer +4
This article presents original work combining a NURBS-based inverse analysis with both kinematic and constitutive nonlinearities to recover the applied loads and deformations of th…
A nonlinear hyperelasticity model for single layer blue phosphorus based on ab-initio calculations
Reza Ghaffari, Farzad Shirazian, Ming Hu +1
A new hyperelastic membrane material model is proposed for single layer blue phosphorus (), also known as blue phosphorene. The model is fully nonlinear and captures th…
Investigating the normal and tangential peeling behaviour of gecko spatulae using a coupled adhesion-friction model
Saipraneeth Gouravaraju, Roger A. Sauer, Sachin Singh Gautam
The present work investigates the normal and tangential peeling behaviour of a gecko spatula using a coupled adhesion-friction model. The objective is to explain the strong attachm…
