Cold Self-Lubrication of Sliding Ice
The low kinetic friction between ice and numerous counterbodies is commonly attributed to an interfacial water layer, which is believed to originate from preexisting surface water or from melt water induced by high contact pressures or frictional heat. However, even the currently leading theory of frictional melting appears to defy direct experimental ...

FRICTIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF BARE FOOT AND RUBBER FOOTWEAR SOLE SLIDING AGAINST POLYPROPYLENE BRAKE PEDAL PADS [PDF]
The present work discusses the friction coefficient displayed by bare foot and footwear soles sliding against polypropylene brake pedal pads. The frictional performance is compared to that obtained from the rubber conventional pads.

TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF POLYMERIC MATERIALS LUBRICATED BY SAND CONTAMINATED WATER [PDF]
The aim of this work is to investigate the abrasive wear resistance of four types of polymeric materials such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyamide (PA6), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).

Phase-transformation-induced lubrication of earthquake sliding [PDF]
Frictional failure is not possible at depth in Earth, hence earthquakes deeper than 30–50 km cannot initiate by overcoming dry friction. Moreover, the frequency distribution of earthquakes with depth is bimodal, suggesting another change of mechanism at about 350 km.

FRICTION COEFFICIENT OF RUBBER SLIDING AGAINST DUSTY INDOOR FLOORING [PDF]
It is well known that in Middle East airborne contaminant levels are particularly high. During severe storm conditions dust concentrations of the order of 100 to 500 times higher may be encountered.
