Directional commensurability stabilizes structural superlubricity in patterned mesoscale interfaces
Viet Hung Ho, Ge Li, Melisa M. Gianetti +3
Structural superlubricity, arising from lattice incommensurability, offers a promising route to eliminate friction and associated energy losses in mechanical systems. In real-world…
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…
How square ice helps lubrication
Astrid S. de Wijn, Lars G. M. Pettersson
In the context of friction we use atomistic molecular-dynamics simulations to investigate water confined between graphene sheets over a wide range of pressures. We find that therma…
