Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.
