Friction Forces Between 2D Materials and Liquids

25.05.2020 tribonet 638 Views

2D materials deserved an interest in material science and other disciplines due to their exciting electronic, mechanical, and optical properties. The unique behavior of these materials originate from very strong in-plane atoms interactions and very […]

Atomic scale deformation responsible for surface roughness

04.05.2020 tribonet 623 Views

Most of the natural or engineered surfaces are not perfect, meaning they are rough. The surface roughness was found across many scales: from atomic to tectonic. The earth looks smooth from space, but someone standing […]
