Submit abstracts by Oct 25! @chenchao04 (3M), Hyunki Kim (3M), and I are organizing a focus session on “Mechanics and Polymer Physics of Soft Adhesives (@APS_DPOLY, @ApsDsoft)”, at the 2025 APS March Meeting. Invited speaker features @HyunwooYuk@SanaHeal. https://t.co/Y5FC9jFweg
@zhigangsuo@rhpume It’s such a great pleasure and honor to host you in 3M campus. Thank you for the great talk in fracture and fatigue, as well as the insightful discussion, which were really educational and inspiring in 3M!
Today I visited 3M, gave a seminar, and had technical discussions.
At lunch I asked, “What makes 3M work?”
“Culture,” a longtime 3Mer replied. It is heartwarming to see people take pride in their organization.
That culture was articulated a long time ago.
Exciting news! 🎉 Congratulations to Prof. Al Crosby for starting as the head of Polymer Science and Engineering @UMassPSE! We from Crosby group are very proud of you and excited to see your passion for science achieving great heights in academic excellence! @aljcrosby#research
@ShiQingWang4@QihanLiu1@zhigangsuo@RuobingB The length scale was derived from the 1/r crack-tip singularity of the strain energy density. The original analysis of this energy singularity was firstly shown in Jim Rice’s HRR paper, so we assume it’s valid at least for metals. His approach was very generic based on J-integral
