Surface Hierarchy: Macroscopic and Microscopic Design Elements for Improved Sliding on Ice

Frictional interaction with a surface will depend on the features and topography within the contact zone. Describing this interaction is particularly complex when considering ice friction, which needs to look at both the macroscopic and microscopic levels. Since Leonardo da Vinci shared his findings...
