The breakdown of superlubricity by driving-induced commensurate dislocations
Andrea Benassi, Ming Ma, Michael Urbakh +1
In the framework of a Frenkel-Kontorova-like model, we address the robustness of the superlubricity phenomenon in an edge-driven system at large scales, highlighting the dynamical…

Critical length limiting super-low friction
Ming Ma, Andrea Benassi, Andrea Vanossi +1
Since the demonstration of super-low friction (superlubricity) in graphite at nanoscale, one of the main challenges in the field of nano- and micro-mechanics was to scale this phen…
