One of the commonly used tools is the lab magnetic stirrer. This works in such a manner that it creates a magnetic field that ...

Researchers found friction can occur without contact, driven by magnetic dynamics, and does not always increase with load. The effect could enable controllable, wear-free technologies.

Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, ...

The relationship between friction and load, quantified three centuries ago, has an exception when the interaction causes ...
