A Simple Geometrical Model for Solid Friction
arXiv:cond-mat/9306062 · doi:10.1016/0378-4371(93)90233-T
Abstract
We present a simple model for the friction of two solid bodies moving against each other. In a self consistent way we can obtain the dependence of the macroscopic friction force as a function of the driving velocity, the normal force and the ruggedness of the surfaces in contact. Our results are discussed in the context of friction laws used in earthquake models.
