Kinetic friction due to Ohm's law heating [PDF]
Using both a recent calculation by Bruch of the damping of the motion of a monolayer nitrogen film oscillating harmonically on a metallic surface due to Ohm's law heating and a Thomas-Fermi approximation treatment of the Ohm's law heating mechanism, which accounts for the nonzero thickness of the surface region of a metal, it is argued that this ...

By engineering the molecular order and thickness of PDMS layers, we reconcile the stickiness and slipperiness during bubble transport. AFM measurements and MD simulations further reveal how these nanoscale architectures tune hydrophobic interaction FHB and friction force f.

ON THE EFFECT OF SPEED ON THE KINETIC FRICTION OF SOME PLASTIC MATERIALS ON ICE
Curves are shown illustrating the effect of speed on the friction of teflon, bakelite, nylon, terylene, plexiglas (perspex), cellulose acetate, polystyrene, and polyethylene, sliding on ice at −5 °C. and −15 °C.

Stress‐to‐Light Conversion in an Earth‐Abundant Oxide Semiconductor
Stress‐to‐light conversion in solids represents a unique photonic functionality, yet it has never been realized in a chemically simple and sustainable material. Here, we show that sustainable semiconductor ZnO exhibits strong near‐infrared (NIR) luminescence under elastic stress when defect‐engineered to stabilize the p‐type state.

Kinetic friction force in a three-layer model with commensurate substrates
A chain of harmonically interacting particles confined between two sinusoidal substrate potentials has been analysed. When the top substrate is driven through an attached spring with a constant velocity, the influence of the system parameters on the ...

Cuttlebone‐inspired architected metamaterials introduce controlled structural disorder to simultaneously enhance strength, energy absorption, and compressive stability. Tunable disorder suppresses shear anisotropy, outperforms periodic lattices, and establishes discrete randomness as a robust route to high‐performance lightweight mechanical ...
