-- FRICTION energy conservation machine wear
... -- NANOFRICTION basic understanding
nanotechnology.

HISTORY LEONARDO DA VINCI
1. Friction is independent of the geometrical
contact area 2. Friction is proportional to
normal load

3. Friction independent of velocity 4. Friction
tied to roughness

MORE GENERAL SLIDING FRICTION MECHANISMS --
Entanglement of asperities, plastic deformation,
wear



(commonest macroscopic friction
mechanism) -- Viscous friction (fluid
interfaces, acquaplaning) -- Phonon
dissipation, elastic deformation (flat solid
interfaces) -- Bulk viscoelastic dissipation
(e.g., car tyres) -- Electronic friction
(metals, still being established) -- Vacuum
friction (more speculative) -- .....
