This web resource was created as a study in friction by students at an Advanced Mechanics class at Davidson College in Davidson. The resource includes a historical background as well as the various factors that affect friction. The analysis includes sections about Rolling Friction, Velocity Dependence, Stick-Slip mechanism, Adhesion, Wear, Lubrication, Viscosity and Wet vs. Dry Friction.
