Atomic scale friction in the function of modified Eyring activation energies

At microscale, friction is better understood fundamentally through hydrodynamic and elastohydrodynamic lubrication. However, the mechanisms governing friction at nanoscale remains a subject of interest. With the emergence of small-scale devices such as Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) and Nanoe...
