New Research: How Thermal Fluctuations Affect Hard-Wall Repulsion and Thereby Hertzian Contact Mechanics: Contact problems as they occur in tribology and colloid science are often solved with the assumption of hard-wall and hard-disk repulsion… https://t.c

Update to RT "Contact Mechanics Perspective of Tribology": https://t.co/UXsqYdgFNu • 62 colleagues confirmed their participation • The first paper of the RT has been published: https://t.co/2fGxuLmMnU It discusses contact mechanics when thermal fluctuatio

The newly appeared paper by Martin Müser et al. discusses the question of whether it is possible to use the macroscopic contact mechanics at the level when thermal fluctuations start to play an important role. Truly intriguing...https://t.co/HfoxGoPAvM htt
