Businesses today face mounting pressure to deliver frictionless customer experiences while maintaining robust fraud prevention and security measures. Traditional verification methods often force ...

Chemists and physicists shed light on a crucial aspect of friction: how things begin to slide. Using fluorescence microscopy and dedicated fluorescent molecules, they are able to pinpoint how and when ...

Dynamic friction model with thermal and load dependency: modeling, compensation, and external force estimation The performance of a physically-motivated friction model with a parametric description of ...

Friction is an intrinsic physical phenomenon to curling. Without it, objects in motion would move endlessly, without slowing down. This would cause many safety-related problems: Cars or trains could ...

Friction may not be the first problem we think of afflicting medical device design, but it is a real issue for many single-use medical devices like syringes, injection pens, and auto-injectors.
