Nonuniform pressure helps structural superlubricity
Melisa M. Gianetti, Viet Hung Ho, Bjørn Haugen +2
Structural superlubricity, nearly vanishing friction between two structurally incommensurate crystalline surfaces, is a promising avenue for reducing friction in applications, but…

Single-Contact Problem in Atomically Flat Interfaces: a Simulation Approach
Rui Dong, Ahmed Uluca, Graham Cross +1
Understanding friction at single-asperity contacts is essential for bridging the gap between nanoscale structural superlubricity and realistic tribological systems dominated by Her…
