model of atomic-scale friction in which a tip dragged by a spring over a periodic potential shows stick-slip when the spring is soft.

In tribology, Prandtl-Tomlinson model refers to model of atomic-scale friction in which a tip dragged by a spring over a periodic potential shows stick-slip when the spring is soft.
