Rong Long: Mechanical Engineering Promotion Seminar

Title Coming soon Research Interests Our research interest is in the broad area of nonlinear mechanics of soft materials and flexible structures. We combine experimental testing with theoretical and computational modeling, aiming towards advancing our knowledge in the complex nonlinear behaviors of soft materials and flexible structures. We are also interested in exploring new applications of novel soft material systems. In the past we have worked on a diverse range of research projects in solid mechanics and biomechanics. These include fracture mechanics of soft elastomers, continuum mechanics modeling of adaptable polymers with dynamic bonds, characterization of three-dimensional (3D) mechanical tractions of biological cells, adhesive contact mechanics of thin membranes, mechanics of bio-inspired fibrillar adhesives and adhesion in biological systems.
