Atomistic mechanisms for frictional energy dissipation during continuous sliding
Abstract After more than a century of detailed investigations into sliding friction, we have not arrived yet at a basic understanding of energy dissipation, even for the simple geometry of a rigid slider moving over a perfectly periodic counter surface. In this article, we use a first-principles-bas...
