Frictional sliding without geometrical reflection symmetry
Michael Aldam, Yohai Bar-Sinai, Ilya Svetlizky +3
The dynamics of frictional interfaces play an important role in many physical systems spanning a broad range of scales. It is well-known that frictional interfaces separating two d…
Dynamic instabilities of frictional sliding at a bimaterial interface
Efim A. Brener, Marc Weikamp, Robert Spatschek +2
We study the 2D linear stability analysis of a deformable solid of a finite height , steadily sliding on top of a rigid solid within a generic rate-and-state friction type const…
Velocity-strengthening friction significantly affects interfacial dynamics, strength and dissipation
Yohai Bar-Sinai, Robert Spatschek, Efim A. Brener +1
Frictional interfaces are abundant in natural and manmade systems and their dynamics still pose challenges of fundamental and technological importance. A recent extensive compilati…
Instabilities at Frictional Interfaces: Creep Patches, Nucleation and Rupture Fronts
Yohai Bar-Sinai, Robert Spatschek, Efim A. Brener +1
The strength and stability of frictional interfaces, ranging from tribological systems to earthquake faults, are intimately related to the underlying spatially-extended dynamics. H…
