Rubber-ice friction

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Friction and colleagues from the Sumitomo Industries, Ltd, Material Research and Development HQ2-1-1, Kobe, Japan have published the article: Rubber-ice friction, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: At low temperatures and low sliding speeds the authors propose that an important contribution to the force is due to slip between the surface and fragments attached to the surface. Pressure melting was often used as an explanation for the low friction on ice for the following 40 years, until Bowden and Hughes suggested that frictional heating might result in melting of the ice surface . . .
