The friction of a nanosized sphere in commensurate contact with a flat substrate is investigated by performing molecular dynamics simulations. Particular focus is on the distribution of shear stress within the contact region. It is noticed that within the slip zone, the local friction coefficient defined by the ratio of shear stress to normal pressure declines monotonically as the distance to contact center increases. With the lateral force increasing, the slip zone expands inwards from the contact edge. At the same time, the local friction coefficient at the contact edge decreases continuously, while at the dividing between the slip and stick zones keeps nearly invariant. These characteristics are distinctly different from the prediction of the conventional Cattaneo-Mindlin model assuming a constant local friction coefficient within the slip zone. An analytical model is advanced in view of such new features and generalized based on numerous atomic simulations. This model not only accurately characterizes the interfacial shear stress, but also explains the size-dependence of static friction of single nanosized asperity.

A sudden drop in mechanical friction, between an adsorbed nitrogen monolayer and a lead substrate, occurs when the lead passes through the superconducting transition temperature. We attribute this effect to a sudden drop at the superconducting transi tion temperature of the substrate Ohmic heating. The Ohmic heating is due to the electronic screening current that results from the sliding adsorbed film.
We extend the approach of Carr, Itkin and Muravey, 2021 for getting semi-analytical prices of barrier options for the time-dependent Heston model with time-dependent barriers by applying it to the so-called $lambda$-SABR stochastic volatility model. In doing so we modify the general integral transform method (see Itkin, Lipton, Muravey, Generalized integral transforms in mathematical finance, World Scientific, 2021) and deliver solution of this problem in the form of Fourier-Bessel series. The weights of this series solve a linear mixed Volterra-Fredholm equation (LMVF) of the second kind also derived in the paper. Numerical examples illustrate speed and accuracy of our method which are comparable with those of the finite-difference approach at small maturities and outperform them at high maturities even by using a simplistic implementation of the RBF method for solving the LMVF.
During the previous decade, K.L. Jensen et. al. developed a general analytical model that successfully describes electron emission from metals both in the field and thermionic regimes, as well as in the transition region. In that development, the sta ndard image corrected triangular potential barrier was used. This barrier model is valid only for planar surfaces and therefore cannot be used in general for modern nanometric emitters. In a recent publication the authors showed that the standard Fowler-Nordheim theory can be generalized for highly curved emitters if a quadratic term is included to the potential model. In this paper we extend this generalization for high temperatures and include both the thermal and intermediate regimes. This is achieved by applying the general method developed by Jensen to the quadratic barrier model of our previous publication. We obtain results that are in good agreement with fully numerical calculations for radii $R>4nm$, while our calculated current density differs by a factor up to 27 from the one predicted by the Jensens standard General-Thermal-Field (GTF) equation. Our extended GTF equation has application to modern sharp electron sources, beam simulation models and vacuum breakdown theory.
We present and validate a novel semi-analytical approach to study the effect of dynamical friction on the orbits of massive perturbers in rotating stellar discs. We find that dynamical friction efficiently circularises the orbit of co-rotating pertur bers, while it constantly increases the eccentricity of counter-rotating ones until their angular momenta reverse, then once again promoting circularisation. Such drag toward circular corotation could shape the distribution of orientations of kinematically decoupled cores in disc galaxies, naturally leading to the observed larger fraction of co-rotating cores.
We report microscale friction experiments for diamond/metal and diamond/silica contacts under gigapascal contact pressures. Using a new nanoprobe technique which has sufficient dynamic range of force and stiffness, we demonstrate the processes involv ed in the transition from purely interface sliding at the nanoscale to the situation where at least one of the sliding bodies undergoes some plastic deformation. For sliding of micrometer-scale diamond spherical tips on metallic substrates, additional local plastic yielding of the substrate resulting from tangential tractions causes the tip to sink into the surface, increasing the contact area in the direction of loading and resulting in a static friction coefficient higher than the kinetic during ploughing. This sink-in is largely absent in fused silica, and no friction drop is observed, along with lower friction in general. The transition from sinking in within the static friction regime to ploughing in the sliding friction regime is mediated by failure of the contact interface, indicated by a sharp increase in energy dissipation. At lower contact pressures, the elastic interfacial sliding behaviour characteristic of scanning probe or surface force apparatus experiments is recovered, bridging the gap between the exotic realm of nanotribology and plasticity dominated macroscale friction. We delineate the material and geometric factors which determine the transition. We also find that some unexpected light is cast on the origins of the difference between static and dynamic friction.
