Superlubricity — is a regime of motion in which friction vanishes or very nearly vanishes.Superlubricity may occur when two crystalline surfaces slide over each other in dry incommensurate contact. This effect, also called structural lubricity , was suggested in… … Wikipedia

Nanotribology — is a branch of tribology which studies friction phenomenon at the nanometer scale (see nanotechnology, nanomechanics). The distinction between nanotribology and tribology is primarily due to the involvement of atomic forces in the determination… … Wikipedia
Lubricity — is the measure of the reduction in friction of a lubricant. The study of lubrication and mechanism wear is called tribology.Measurement of lubricityLubricity of a material cannot be directly measured, so tests are performed to quantify a… … Wikipedia
Tomlinson model — Phenomenological model introduced in 1929 by the British physicist G.A. Tomlinson and used to interpret friction on the atomic scale.Essentially, a nanotip is dragged by a spring over a corrugated energy landscape. The ratio between the energy… … Wikipedia
