On shear adhesion of adhesive fibrils by Linghu, Changhong, Du, Zihao, Sun, Yi, Chen, Weiqiu, Hsia, K. Jimmy

“…Our model reveals that, depending on the fibrillar aspect ratio, the adhesive fibril exhibits three distinct deformation regimes: thin film shearing, thick block shearing, and slender beam bending. The important parameters governing the shear adhesion of the lap shear system are the aspect ratio of fibrils, elastic moduli of the fibrils and substrates, while the Poisson's ratio of fibrils has no noticeable effect. …”
