Validity of Winkler's mattress model for thin elastomeric layers: Beyond Poisson's ratio

no code implementations21 Oct 2020 Thomas G. J. Chandler, Dominic Vella

Since many of the thin layers used in applications are elastomeric, and hence close to incompressible, we consider the question of when the Winkler model is appropriate for such layers.
