The friction felt by a speed skater is calculated as function of the velocity and tilt angle of the skate. This calculation is an extension of the more common theory of friction of upright skates. Not only in rounding a curve the skate has to be t

The friction of a stationary moving skate on smooth ice is investigated, in particular in relation to the formation of a thin layer of water between skate and ice. It is found that the combination of ploughing and sliding gives a friction force th

Skating has been popular for centuries but is still poorly understood. Is it sufficient that the surface of ice is wet in order to explain why skating is possible for a wide range of temperatures, velocities and types of skates? Or do we need a layer

The physics of a row of toppling dominoes is discussed. In particular the forces between the falling dominoes are analyzed and with this knowledge, the effect of friction has been incorporated. A set of limiting situations is discussed in detail, suc

Linear polymers are represented as chains of hopping reptons and their motion is described as a stochastic process on a lattice. This admittedly crude approximation still catches essential physics of polymer motion, i.e. the universal properties as f

We consider an arbitrarily charged polymer driven by a weak electric field through a gel. The orientation of these polymers can be derived from a central model in which only the head is charged. The orientation displays characteristic bulk and tail b

We study the relaxation of force distributions in the q-model, assuming a uniform q-distribution. We show that “diffusion of correlations” makes this relaxation very slow. On a d-dimensional lattice, the asymptotic state is approached as l (1−d

The tumbling of a rigid rod in a shear flow is analyzed in the high viscosity limit. Following Burgers, the Master Equation is derived for the probability distribution of the orientation of the rod. The equation contains one dimensionless number, the

The density matrix approach is a technique to calculate the lowest eigenvalue of a large matrix such as occurring in quantum mechanical systems. So far the method works very well for systems with a linear structure. The limitations for a planar struc
