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…

Kinetic Theory for the Shear Viscosity of Dense Binary Dipolar Fluid Mixtures
Christopher Devik Fjeldstad, Roberto Troncoso, Astrid S. de Wijn
We construct a kinetic theory for the shear viscosity of dense binary fluid mixtures of strongly-interacting dipolar hard spheres. We derive an expression for the pairwise correlat…
