Turing Systems, Entropy, and Kinetic Models for Self-Healing Surfaces

The paper addresses the methods of description of friction-induced self-healing at the interface between two solid bodies. A macroscopic description of self-healing is based on a Turing system for the transfer of matter that leads to self-organization at the interface in the case of an unstable stat...
