The Influence of Vertical Vibration on Nanoscale Friction: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study
The influence of vibration on friction at the nanoscale was studied via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results show that average friction increases in a high-frequency range. This can be attributed to the vibration of the tip following vibration excitation, which results in peaks of repuls...
