Rucks and folds: delamination from a flat rigid substrate under uniaxial compression
Benny Davidovitch, Vincent Démery
We revisit the delamination of a solid adhesive sheet under uniaxial compression from a flat, rigid substrate. Using energetic considerations and scaling arguments we show that the…
Dynamics of a self-propelled particle in a harmonic trap
Olivier Dauchot, Vincent Démery
The dynamics of an active walker in a harmonic potential is studied experimentally, numerically and theoretically. At odds with usual models of self-propelled particles, we identif…
Cylinder morphology of a stretched and twisted ribbon
Vincent Démery, Huy Pham Dinh, Pascal Damman
A rich zoology of shapes emerges from a simple stretched and twisted elastic ribbon. Despite a lot of interest, all these shape are not understood, in particular the shape that pre…
Mean-field microrheology of a very soft colloidal suspension: inertia induces shear-thickening
Vincent Démery
Colloidal suspensions have a rich rheology and can exhibit shear-thinning as well as shear-thickening. Numerical simulations recently suggested that shear-thickening may be attribu…
Electrostatic interactions mediated by polarizable counterions: weak and strong coupling limits
Vincent Démery, David S. Dean, Rudolf Podgornik
We investigate the statistical mechanics of an inhomogeneous Coulomb fluid composed of charged particles with static polarizability. We derive the weak- and the strong-coupling app…
