Question

Theory of frictional energy

Answer 1

The energy dissipation in the contact regions between solids in sliding contact can result in high local temperatures which may strongly effect friction and wear. ... A theory of friction is presented that may be more applicable to geologic materials than the classic Bowden and Tabor theory.
