Abstract
ABSTRACT We investigate the mechanical properties of a layered material with interlayer friction. We propose a model that contains lateral elasticity and interlayer friction to obtain the response function both in the Fourier and real spaces. By investigating how the internal deformation is laterally induced due to the applied surface displacement, we find that it is transmitted into the material with an apparent phase difference. We also obtain the effective complex modulus of the layered material and show that it exhibits an intermediate power-law behavior in the low-frequency regime. Our results can be used to estimate the internal deformation of layered materials that exists on various different scales.
