Determining the coefficient of friction between solids without sliding

A novel method for measuring the interfacial coefficient of friction between two solids which avoids sliding is described, and sample results are given. The technique makes use of the fact that a carefully controlled sequence of partial slip states between contacting bodies may be used to produce re...
