Friction will cease publication with Springer Nature on completion of Volume 12/2024. The journal will continue in cooperation with Tsinghua University Press from Volume 13/2025.

May 5, 2025 · We discuss different forms of friction, static friction, kinetic friction, and rolling friction, and show how the resulting frictional forces can be parameterized.

Sep 6, 2017 · Calculations of the impact of friction and wear on energy consumption, economic expenditure, and CO 2 emissions are presented on a global scale. This impact study covers …

Aug 26, 2022 · Here, we firstly introduce the classical microscopic mechanism of friction energy dissipation, including phonon dissipation, electron dissipation, and non-contact friction energy …

Jul 4, 2023 · The measurement method of internal friction can be selected according to the frequency range, sample size, and internal friction. There are five commonly used methods.

Friction and wear are system responses, rather than material properties. The measurement of tribological behavior therefore poses particular challenges, and a keen awareness of the …

Friction plays important and multiple roles in the operation of dynamic seals. Since friction dissipates energy, it can reduce the efficiency of a mechanical/electrical system.

Dating back to 1699, Amontons’ laws of friction assert that there exists a proportionality between friction force and the applied load, and that the friction force is independent of apparent …

Friction is defined as the resistance to sliding motion and is measured in terms of the coefficient of friction, which is the ratio of the force necessary to cause sliding between two bodies in …
