Adhesion in smooth hydrophobic soft contacts induces a distinct sliding regime with Schallamach-wave-like instabilities that alters the Stribeck curve, unlike rough surfaces where a fitted mixed-lubrication model applies.
With the present experimental setup, we cannot directly observe what is happening at the buried interface

Adhesion-controlled sliding and the Stribeck curve in hydrophobic soft contacts
Adhesion in smooth hydrophobic soft contacts induces a distinct sliding regime with Schallamach-wave-like instabilities that alters the Stribeck curve, unlike rough surfaces where a fitted mixed-lubrication model applies.
