Mechanical behavior of thin constrained layers is analyzed in an asymptotic setting which allows one to examine various singular perturbations. Of particular interest are the following topics:
- Compressible, incompressible, and nearly incompressible layers.
- Identification of mechanical properties of interphases in glass-epoxy composites.
- Poro-elastic layers and connections with Terzaghi’s tests.
- Squeezing of power-law fluid layers between flat and curved surfaces.
