DESCRIPTION:Samuel Poincloux\, fleXLab\, EPFL\nWhat is the bending rigidit
 y of a book? Properties of stacks result from the interplay between the in
 ter-layer interactions and the mechanical properties of the individual lay
 ers. In this talk\, we discuss the particular case of a stack of elastic p
 lates interacting through friction. Using bending experiments\, we deciphe
 r the observed mechanical response by elucidating the roles of elasticity\
 , geometrical non-linearities\, and friction.
