[1] Papangelo, A., & Ciavarella, M. (2023). Detachment of a rigid flat punch from a viscoelastic material, Tribology Letters, DOI: 10.1007/s11249-023-01720-9

The provided data are those which appear in the figures of Ref. [1]. Data are stored using informative named structures in a ".mat" file. The data are easily accessible through the Commercial Software MATLAB (© 1994-2023 The MathWorks, Inc.) or by using the free software GNU Octave. An exemplary code for loading and plotting the data contained in "dataFlatPunch.mat" is the following:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%

load('dataFlatPunch.mat')   % load workspace containing data

figure, hold on                     % open a new figure

curve_number = 1;              % select the curve to plot

plot(Fig1.x{curve_number},Fig1.y{curve_number})     % Plot the curve number "curve_number" of figure "Fig1"

%%%%%%%%%%%%%

The code can be easily adapted for plotting the curves of all the figures contained in Ref. [1].
