The dynamic evolution of an elastic medium undergoing frictional slip is considered. The Coulomb law modeling the contact uses a friction coefficient that is a non-monotone function of the slip-rate.

When light is scattered from a solution or a suspension, it undergoes random changes in intensity. This phenomenon helps us to determine the size of the particles that scatter the light. This is the ...

Viscosity is one of the standard physical properties used for qualifying many industrial products. Various types of viscometers are available, of which the rotational viscometer is the most efficient ...

Rubber-like materials can exhibit both spring-like and flow-like behaviors simultaneously, which contributes to their exceptional damping abilities. To understand the dynamic viscoelasticity of these ...
