This book was released on 2023-10-13 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third edition of the book which contains ten chapters and it covers my research about polymer brush bilayers under shear. The chapter ten is devoted to polymer brush bilayers under non-equilibrium shear inversion which is very important in studying mammalian synovial joint behavior. In this chapter, it is revealed that the hydrodynamic interactions produce mechanical instabilities in the system while adding electrostatic interactions removes those mechanical instabilities.
