Finger Contact during Pressing and Sliding on a Glass Plate
Light contact between the finger and the surface of an object sometimes causes an unanticipated slip. However, conditions causing this slip have not been fully understood, mainly because the biological components interact in complex ways to generate the skin-surface frictional properties. We investigated how the contact area starts slipping in various conditions of moisture, occlusion, and temperature during a lateral motion performed while pressing lightly on the surface.
