Keynote

One of the main difficulties in understanding and predicting frictional response is the intrinsic complexity of highly non-equilibrium processes in any tribological contact, which include breaking and formation of multiple interatomic bonds between surfaces in relative motion. Moreover, under tribological conditions, local charge accumulation may take place and affect the tribological...
