Friction Force for Self-Excited Systems

Materials Science 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The paper presents a model for low friction made up of a self-excited oscillator sliding along a periodic potential. It is shown that if the self-excitation affects a body sliding tangentially to a surface, than stick-slip modification and reduction of energy dissipation during the motion are observed.
