For example, when a normal tire travels over water
at a high speed, pressure builds until a film forms to lubricate the interface; this is called hydroplaning, and results in a complete loss of
frictional control.
MIT researchers developed a

at the atomic level.
Volcanologists
at the University have discovered that a process called
frictional melting plays a role in determining how a volcano will erupt, by dictating how fast magma can ascend to the surface, and how much resistance it faces en - route.
«This transition demonstrates that shear thickening is driven primarily by
frictional contacts, with hydrodynamic forces playing a supporting role
at lower concentrations of particles, when mixtures are less dense,» Royer explained.
When the tip of the microscope oscillates over certain surfaces, in this case over NbSe2 (niobium selenide), peaks of «dissipation» (i.e., loss of energy) can be seen when the tip is
at specific distances from the surface, as if it were held back,
at certain locations, by some
frictional force.
«
At those altitudes, there is no planetary boundary - layer friction with the surface (meaning, the surface terrain does not exert a
frictional drag on the wind moving above it), so high - speed winds might be possible.
The above quote means that your goal as the driver is to attempt to ensure that the clutch is spending more time in a static friction mode (i.e., where the
frictional surfaces of the clutch are turning
at the same speed, pressed tightly together) rather than a kinetic friction mode (i.e., where the
frictional surfaces are turning
at different speeds and are slipping past each other).
• NGK does not recommend the application of lubricant to spark plug threads as the resultant reduction of
frictional forces
at the thread faces will render the torque charts inaccurate and over tightening could occur

Wilson (1964); Wilson (1966); Wilson (1969); Wilson's starting - point was the suggestion that the center of Antarctica was
at the pressure melting point, see Robin (1962), p. 141, who adds that «one would not expect the ice to surge over a large part of Antarctica
at one time»; the role of
frictional heat in ice - sheet instability was pointed out back in 1961 (in partial support of Ewing - Donn theory), drawing on earlier work by G. Bodvarsson, by Weertman (1961).

Turbulence in both the ocean and the inviscid mantle (the part that flows freely like a liquid), as well as
frictional drag
at the core - mantle and mantle - crust boundaries where the mantle starts to solidify due respectively to increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, should account for most of this dissipation.
