• Adhesion between rubber and glass in dry and lubricated condition 

      Dorogin, Leonid; Tiwari, Avinash; Rotella, C; Mangiagalli, Paolo; Persson, Bo N.J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      We study the adhesion between differently processed glass and filled bromobutyl rubber in dry conditions, in water, and in silicone oil. The boundary line between contact and non-contact in adhesion experiments can be ...
    • Rubber friction: The contribution from the area of real contact 

      Tiwari, Avinash; Miyashita, N; Espallargas, Nuria; Persson, Bo N.J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      There are two contributions to the friction force when a rubber block is sliding on a hard and rough substrate surface, namely, a contribution Fad = τf A from the area of real contact A and a viscoelastic contribution Fvisc ...
