How do liquids confined at the nanoscale influence adhesion?
C. Yang, U. Tartaglino, B. N. J. Persson
Liquids play an important role in adhesion and sliding friction. They behave as lubricants in human bodies especially in the joints. However, in many biological attachment systems…

Effect of surface roughness and adsorbates on superlubricity
V. N. Samoilov, C. Yang, U. Tartaglino +1
We study the sliding of elastic solids in adhesive contact with flat and rough interfaces. We consider the dependence of the sliding friction on the elastic modulus of the solids.…

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces
Bo N. J. Persson
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implicatio…
