Majorana fermions at self-generated interfaces
Nikola Prodanov, Sergio Ciuchi, Sergio Caprara
The Kitaev model describing a one-dimensional topological superconducting chain is known to support two Majorana fermions localized at the systems endpoints when the parameters are…
Systematic analysis of Persson's contact mechanics theory of randomly rough elastic surfaces
Wolf B. Dapp, Nikolay Prodanov, Martin H. Müser
We systematically check explicit and implicit assumptions of Persson's contact mechanics theory. It casts the evolution of the pressure distribution with increasing r…
On the contact area and mean gap of rough, elastic contacts: Dimensional analysis, numerical corrections and reference data
Nikolay Prodanov, Wolf B. Dapp, Martin H. Müser
The description of elastic, nonadhesive contacts between solids with self-affine surface roughness seems to necessitate knowledge of a large number of parameters. However, few para…
Frictional anisotropy of metal nanoparticles adsorbed on graphene
A. V. Khomenko, N. V. Prodanov, M. A. Khomenko +1
Friction force acting on silver and nickel nanoparticles sheared on a graphene sheet in different lateral directions is investigated using classical molecular dynamics simulations.…
Atomistic modelling of friction of Cu and Au nanoparticles adsorbed on graphene
A. V. Khomenko, N. V. Prodanov, B. N. J. Persson
We present classical molecular dynamics calculations of the behavior of copper and gold nanoparticles on a graphene sheet, sheared with a constant applied force . The fo…
Supplementary material to: Finite-size effects in the interfacial stiffness of rough elastic contacts
Lars Pastewka, Nikolay Prodanov, Boris Lorenz +3
In this supplementary materials section, we provide (i) additional information on the numerical simulations of the main work, (ii) the derivation of all prefactors in the analytica…
