    The friction of sliding surfaces carrying boundary layers

    Conventional boundary films are thought of as ``solid'' layers in which shear strength is directly proportional to local contact pressure. However, recent studies suggest both that the properties of adsorbed o...

    Friction of Sliding Surfaces Carrying Boundary Layers: The Relation between Friction on the Micro- and Macro-Scales

    Commercial lubricants invariably contain a chemically complex additive package, one of whose roles is to produce protective boundary layers on the opposing solids: the aim of the lubricant technologist is to p...
