Friction on Ice: How Temperature, Pressure, and Speed Control the Slipperiness of Ice
We present sphere-on-ice friction experiments as a function of temperature, contact pressure, and speed. At temperatures well below the melting point, friction is strongly temperature dependent and follows an Arrhenius behavior, which we interpret as resulting from the thermally activated diffusive...
