Nonlocal elastic compliance for soft solids: theory, simulations, and experiments.
The nonlocal elastic response function is crucial for understanding many properties of soft solids. This may be obtained by measuring strain-strain autocorrelation functions. We use computer simulations as well as video microscopy data of superparamagnetic colloids to obtain these correlations for two-dimensional triangular solids. Elastic constants and elastic correlation lengths are extracted...
متن کاملEffective interactions between soft-repulsive colloids: experiments, theory, and simulations.
We describe a combined experimental, theoretical, and simulation study of the structural correlations between cross-linked highly monodisperse and swollen Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel dispersions in the fluid phase in order to obtain the effective pair-interaction potential between the microgels. The density-dependent experimental pair distribution functions g(r)'s are deduced from real...
متن کاملElastic heterogeneity of soft random solids
Spatial heterogeneity in the elastic properties of soft random solids is examined via a semi-microscopic model network using replica statistical mechanics. The elastic heterogeneity is characterized by random residual stress and Lamé coefficient fields, and the statistics of these quantities is inferred. Correlations involving the residual-stress field are found to be long ranged and governed b...
متن کاملCompliance Control for an Anthropomorphic Robot with Elastic Joints: Theory and Experiments
Studies on motion control of robot manipulators with elastic joints are basically aimed at improving robot performance in tracking or regulation tasks. In the interaction between robots and environment, instead, the main objective of a control strategy should be the reduction of the vibrational and chattering phenomena that elasticity in the robot joints can cause. This work takes into account ...
متن کاملCrack blunting and the strength of soft elastic solids
When a material is so soft that the cohesive strength (or adhesive strength, in the case of interfacial fracture) exceeds the elastic modulus of the material, we show that a crack will blunt instead of propagating. Large-deformation nite-element model (FEM) simulations of crack initiation, in which the debonding processes are quanti ed using a cohesive zone model, are used to support this hy...
