Peeling is a physical mechanics involved in the detachment of many natural and virginia mill works tobacco road acacia industrial applications.In this paper, we investigate the double peeling of an endless elastic pre-stressed tape adhering to a flat smooth rigid substrate.Solutions are given in read more closed form and their stability is discussed.

Critical pull-off force needed to detachment is shown to be higher for pre-stressed tapes.However, when a pre-stress is high, tapes behave differently and may spontaneously detach from the rigid substrate.
