We have just submitted a paper which solves a problem that I have been struggling to solve for many years.
Any comments are welcome to improve, while the paper goes the standard review process in the journal we submitted it.
On stickiness of multiscale randomly rough surfaces
Advanced Materials and 3D Printing Lab (AM3DP) at Khalifa University, Masdar invites applications for Postdoctoral and Research Associate positions to work on a multi-disciplinary collaborative project. Successful candidate(s) will work at AM3DP lab and will be based in the Mechanical Engineering department at Masdar. These positions warrant regular communication with the international collaborative team: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard Medical School.
Project Description
Dear all,
Our group has recently performed a study on using ductile concrete, so called SHCC, as a surface layer in reinforced concrete structures in order to control the crack width. This will enable engineers to reduce the amount of reinforcement needed for crack control by using an advanced concrete type only where it is needed, thereby limiting the costs.

The remarkable phenomenon of the drag reduction via addition of small amounts of polymer molecules to a Newtonian solvent was observed experimentally long ago. However, the theoretical explanations of this observation are not overwhelming yet. In this note, we present a possible theoretical account of the phenomenon. It is based on the use of the Navier–Stokes model with viscous strength for the solvent and the upper-convected Maxwell model for the polymer solute.
