A fast first-principles approach to model atomic force microscopy on soft, adhesive, and viscoelastic surfaces
Quantitative atomic force microscopy (AFM) on soft polymers remains challenging due to the lack of easy-to-use computational models that accurately capture the physics of the interaction between the tip and sticky, viscoelastic samples. In this work, we enhance Attard’s continuum mechanics-based mod...
