A microscopic model describing frictional forces between a tip and a surface near its melting point predicts different behaviour for grazing friction compared with ploughing friction On a macroscopic ...
At a busy street crossing, people wait for the signal to change. When one person steps out first, others soon follow. Scientists in Amsterdam have found that this same kind of behavior happens at a ...
For more than 200 years, scientists have argued about a deceptively simple question: why does a sheet of frozen water let us ...
