Superlubricity is defined as a sliding regime in which friction or
resistance to sliding vanishes. It has been shown that energy can
be conserved by further reducing/removing friction in moving
mechanical systems and this book includes contributions from
world-renowned scientists who address some of the most fundamental
research issues in overcoming friction. Superlubricity reviews the
latest methods and materials in this area of research that are
aimed at removing friction in nano-to-micro scale machines and
large scale engineering components. Insight is also given into the
atomic-scale origins of friction in general and superlubricity
while other chapters focus on experimental and practical aspects or
impacts of superlubricity that will be very useful for broader
industrial community.
