The complex processes involved in the dry friction between two bodies are not yet fully understood. Towards an improved understanding of the associated tribological phenomena, the authors combine their skills and expertise in the respective fields of tribological experimentation, modeling, and simulation, as well as topological and chemical surface analyses. The aim of this research is more accurate predictions of the tribological behavior of minimal friction material mixtures. (© 2017 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
