Stability of a thin elastic film close to a rigid plate
چکیده انگلیسی

We introduce and study a variational model for the formation of patterns induced by bringing the surface of a rigid plate into contact proximity with the surface of a polymeric film strongly bonded to a substrate. We treat the film as a homogeneous, isotropic, hyperelastic solid and account for both attractive and repulsive van der Waals interactions between the film surface and the proximate contractor. Aside from confirming the intuitive expectation that the presence of a repulsive contribution to the van der Waals potential should stabilize patterns that form on the film surface, we elucidate the role of repulsive interactions at the onset of instability. For a recently proposed van der Waals potential involving two parameters, the Hamaker constant A   and the equilibrium spacing dede, our results include estimates for the critical gap dcdc at which undulations appear on the film surface, the corresponding wavenumber kckc of the undulations, and a lower bound fmfm for the attractive force needed to induce the undulations. To leading order, dc∼(Ah/μ)1/4dc∼(Ah/μ)1/4, kc∼1/hkc∼1/h, and fm∼(μ3A/h3)1/4fm∼(μ3A/h3)1/4, where h and μ   denote the thickness and infinitesimal shear modulus of the film. Correction terms due to repulsive interactions indicate that, while kckc may be influenced by μμ and A  , dcdc may also be influenced by dede. Granted knowledge of μμ and A  , our results also suggest a simple experimental protocol for determining dede.
