X 摘要

We determine both the in-plane and out-of-plane dynamics of viscoelastic membranes separating two viscous fluids in order to understand microrheological studies of such membranes. We demonstrate the general viscoelastic signatures in the dynamics of shear; bending; and compression modes. We show that these modes remain independent in the presence of hydrodynamic interactions. The full response functions for motion both in-plane and out-of-plane are derived for the general case of viscoelastic films in contact with arbitrary viscous fluids. Specifically; we derive closed-form expressions for the in-plane longitudinal and transverse response functions for viscous membranes embedded in fluid media. We also find a screening of the otherwise two-dimensional character of the response to point forces due to the presence of the solvent.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
