• Colloquium: Modeling friction: From nanoscale to mesoscale (2011, background): “…central role in diverse systems and phenomena that span vast ranges of scales, from the nanometer contacts inherent in micromachines and nanomachines (Urbakh et al., 2004) and biological molecular motors (Bormuth et al., 2009) to the geophysical scales characteristic of earthquakes (Scholz, 1998).”
• Advances in nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of lubricants and additives (2018, background): “In tribology, processes at the smallest scales often drive the macroscopic friction [2] and wear [3] behaviour that we observe.”
• Properties, Principles, and Parameters of the Gecko Adhesive System (2006, background): “It is remarkable that the study of a lizard is contributing to understanding the fundamental processes underlying adhesion and friction (Fakley 2001; Urbakh et al. 2004), and providing biological inspiration for the design of novel adhesives and climbing robots.”
