The Role of Asperity Geometry and Roughness Orientation for the Friction-Reducing Effect of Adsorbed Molecular Films

The influence of roughness orientation on the friction-speed characteristics of adsorbed films was investigated by changing the angle of the anisotropically striated roughness to the sliding direction of the counter surface. As the angle of the striated roughness becomes perpendicular to the sliding...
