A NOTE ON HEAT GENERATION DUE TO SURFACE RUBBING

The question of heat generation by frictional rubbing is examined from the point of view of material elastic properties. Theory suggests and evidence is presented that low modulus materials tend to generate more internal heat during rubbing then high modulus materials of similar thermal properties. /Author/
