Molecular dynamics simulations of metallic friction and of its dependence on electric currents: development and first results
… dynamics (MD) code to run slider-on-block friction experiments for Al and Cu. Both objects are allowed to evolve freely and show marked deformation despite the hardness difference. We recover realistic coefficients of friction and verify the importance of cold-welding and plastic …

Finite Element Analysis of Thermal-Mechanical Instabilities in Nonmetallic Friction Composite Material
… to cause thermal buckling.</p> <p>Alternate non-metallic friction material and the effect of anisotropy in friction materials was also investigated to determine the limits of brakes and clutches at which thermal-mechanical instability can occur. Carbon-carbon silicon carbide as a replacement for …

Thermo-Mechanical Instabilities in Next-Generation Friction Materials in High-Speed Sliding Systems
… has incorporated metals like copper into friction materials to enhance thermal properties and minimize thermo-mechanical instabilities (TMI) in high-speed sliding systems. Unfortunately, these metals have adverse environmental effects due to the emission of hazardous particulate matter. As …

Molecular Dynamics Study of Characterization in Metal-Free Friction Materials
<p>Metallic friction materials currently used in industry may adversely impact the environment. Substitutions for metals in friction materials, on the other hand, can introduce operational safety issues and other unforeseeable issues such as thermal-mechanical instabilities and insufficient …
