New Superlubricity Research Could Turbocharge Industrial Energy Efficiency
Professor Brilliantov, from Leicester’s School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences, said: “Such a dramatic difference with the common friction is intriguing and needs explanation. There are other surprising features of superlubricity, such as the unusual dependence of friction force on the sliding velocity, on temperature and contact area. All these dependencies are opposite to that predicted by the traditional Amontons-Coulomb laws. Explaining the enigmatic behavior of superlubricity will help to control ultralow friction, which can open the breath-taking horizons of its industrial applications.”
