The Friction of Saline Ice on Aluminium
Figure 3
Example plots showing variations in the coefficient of friction. (a) Friction against time, = 10−4 ms−1, rough aluminium at −2°C; (b) friction against time, = 10−2 ms−1, rough aluminium at −2°C; (c) friction against displacement from a typical hold time test (−2°C, polished aluminium). Increases in static friction following periods of static contact are clear at 20, 29, 38, and 47 mm of displacement and are marked on the plot.
