Dynamic Behaviors of Contact Surfaces in the Sliding Friction of a Soft Material

It is known that detachment waves are generated on the surface of a soft material when it is slid on a hard surface under certain conditions. In the present study, the variation in the contact area that arises when a plate of a cross-linked polymer, poly-dimethylsiloxane (PDMS), is slid in contact w...
