Why ice is so slippery
Sigbjørn Løland Bore, Sigbjørn Løland Bore, B. N. J. Persson +1
We simulate nanoscale ice--glass friction from first principles and upscale it by modeling frictional heating. Nanoscale simulations alone overestimate friction and miss its veloci…

Energy dissipation at the atomic scale explains how fracture energy depends on crack velocity in silica glass
Marthe Grønlie Guren, Sigbjørn Løland Bore, François Renard +1
The fracture energy of brittle materials rises with crack velocity, and this effect is typically attributed to surface roughening from path instabilities. Here we show, using molec…
