The problem of the detachment of a sufficiently large flat indenter from a plane adhesive viscoelastic strip of thickness “b” is studied. For any given retraction speed, three different detachment regimes are found: (i) for very small “b” the detachment stress is constant and equal to the theoretical strength of the interface, (ii) for intermediate values of “b” the detachment stress decays approximately as b−1/2, (iii) for thick layers a constant detachment stress is obtained corresponding to case the punch is detaching from a halfplane.
This study presents a computational approach to obtain nonlinearly elastic constitutive relations of strip/ribbon-like structures modeled as a special Cosserat rod. Starting with the description of strips as a general Cosserat plate, the strip is first subjected to a strain field which is uniform along its length. The Helical Cauchy-Born rule is used to impose this uniform strain field which deforms the strip into a six-parameter family of helical configurations-the six parameters here correspond to the six strain measures of rod theory.

Title: Data Driven Modeling of Mechanical Systems
Discussion leader: Adrian Buganza Tepole, Purdue University
Time: 10 am Boston, 3 pm London, 4 pm Paris, 10 pm Beijing on Tuesday, 17 October 2023
In this paper we revisit the mathematical foundations of nonlinear viscoelasticity.
Sharing for the benefit of those who are interested: A new technical paper co-authored by researchers at the JAXA: Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, The University of Tokyo and CYBERNET SYSTEMS CO.,LTD., was published in the Aerospace - a free-access journal by MDPI. The authors reckon that the study will provide a guideline for effective designs of high-performance lattice structures with architected materials.
