| Popis: | We study three different experiments that involve dry friction and periodic driving, and which employ both single and many-particle systems. These experimental set-ups, besides providing a playground for investigation of frictional effects, are relevant in broad areas of science and engineering. Across all these experiments, we monitor the dynamics of objects placed on a substrate that is being moved in a horizontal manner. The driving couples to the degrees of freedom of the substrate, and this coupling in turn influences the motion of the objects. Our experimental findings suggest emergence of stationary-states with non-trivial features. We invoke a minimalistic phenomenological model to explain our experimental findings. Within our model, we treat the injection of energy into the system to be dependent on its dynamical state, whereby energy injection is allowed only when the system is in its suitable-friction state. Our phenomenological model is built on the fact that such a state-dependent driving results in a force that repeatedly toggles the frictional states in time, and serves to explain our experimental findings.
