Molecular rolling friction: the cogwheel model
O. M. Braun, Erio Tosatti
With the help of a two-dimensional model we study rolling lubrication by circular (2D fullerenes) molecules for a wide range of parameters. The conditions under which microscopic r…

Modeling friction on a mesoscale: Master equation for the earthquake-like model
Oleg Braun, Michel Peyrard
The earthquake-like model with a continuous distribution of static thresholds is used to describe the properties of solid friction. The evolution of the model is reduced to a maste…
