Quantum “contact” friction: The contribution of kinetic friction coefficient from thermal fluctuations
Abstract A thermal model of kinetic friction is assigned to a classical loaded particle moving on a fluctuating smooth surface. A sinusoidal wave resembles surface fluctuations with a relaxation time. The Hamiltonian is approximated to the mean energy of the wave describing a system of Harmonic osci...
