Heat transfer between elastic solids with randomly rough surfaces
B. N. J. Persson, B. Lorenz, A. I. Volokitin
We study the heat transfer between elastic solids with randomly rough surfaces. We include both the heat transfer from the area of real contact, and the heat transfer between the s…

Rubber friction on smooth surfaces
B. N. J. Persson, A. I. Volokitin
We study the sliding friction for viscoelastic solids, e.g., rubber, on hard flat substrate surfaces. We consider first the fluctuating shear stress inside a viscoelastic solid whi…
