October 25, 2016Friction, wetting, mechanics, and related mattersfriction, logic, wetting

Dr. Nosonovsky has joint the Program Committee of Workshop on Logics for Unconventional Computing MARCH 15–17, 2017 Below are some thoughts om the subject. Interestingly, friction and other surface phenomena including adhesion, capillarity, and the superhydrophobicity have logical and information… Read More

Про трение как “сопутствующее явление” (“Friction as an epiphenomenon”) is a bit “philosophical” paper in Russian about friction. For most conventional textbooks on mechanics, Coulomb’s dry friction is an external phenomenon, which is introduced in an ad hoc manner in addition… Read More
