    • Digital Instability of a Confined Elastic Meniscus 

      Biggins, John S.; Saintyves, Baudouin; Wei, Zhiyan; Bouchaud, Elisabeth; Mahadevan, Lakshminarayanan (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013)
      Thin soft elastic layers serving as joints between relatively rigid bodies may function as sealants, thermal, electrical, or mechanical insulators, bearings, or adhesives. When such a joint is stressed, even though perfect ...
    • Dynamics of ice stream temporal variability: Modes, scales, and hysteresis 

      Robel, Alexander Abram; DeGiuli, E.; Schoof, C.; Tziperman, Eli (Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)
      Understanding the mechanisms governing temporal variability of ice stream flow remains one of the major barriers to developing accurate models of ice sheet dynamics and ice‒climate interactions. Here we analyze a simple ...
