Thermal Friction Enhancement in Zwitterionic Monolayers
Melisa M. Gianetti, Roberto Guerra, Andrea Vanossi +2
We introduce a model for zwitterionic monolayers and investigate its tribological response to changes in applied load, sliding velocity, and temperature by means of molecular-dynam…
Experimental observation of the Aubry transition in two-dimensional colloidal monolayers
T. Brazda, A. Silva, N. Manini +4
The possibility to achieve entirely frictionless, i.e. superlubric, sliding between solids, holds enormous potential for the operation of mechanical devices. At small length scales…
Friction and Adhesion mediated by supramolecular host-guest complexes
Roberto Guerra, Andrea Benassi, Andrea Vanossi +2
The adhesive and frictional response of an AFM tip connected to a substrate through supramolecular host-guest complexes is investigated by dynamic Monte Carlo simulations. The vari…
