Approaches to solving viscoelastic problems have received extensive attention in recent
decades as viscoelastic materials have been widely applied in various fields. An overview of …

The small-scale topography of surfaces critically affects the contact area of solids and thus
the forces acting between them. Although this has long been known, only recent advances …

In this study, we propose a theory of rough adhesive contact of viscoelastic materials in
steady-state sliding. By exploiting a boundary formulation based on Green's function …

We solve numerically the problem of a sliding viscoelastic cylinder in the presence of
adhesion, modelled using the Lennard Jones force-separation law. For the material, a linear …

We present a general energy approach to study the unsteady adhesive contact of
viscoelastic materials. Under the assumption of infinitely short-range adhesive interactions …

We present a model to study the non-steady V-shaped peeling of a viscoelastic thin tape
adhering to a rigid flat substrate. Geometry evolution and viscoelastic creep in the tape are …

I study the influence of temperature and the crack-tip velocity of bond breaking at the crack
tip in rubber-like materials. Bond breaking is considered as a stress-aided thermally …

Modeling the adhesion of viscoelastic rough surfaces is a recent challenge in contact
mechanics. Existing models have primarily focused on simple systems with smooth …

In classical experiments, it has been found that a rigid cylinder can roll both on and under an
inclined rubber plane with a friction force that depends on a power law of velocity …

High-frequency micrometrical vibrations have been shown to greatly influence the adhesive
performance of soft interfaces, however a detailed comparison between theoretical …
