This is the "part I" of my PhD thesis.
It addresses the problem of the stick-slip transition at an interface experiencing dry friction taking inspiration from the experiments led by Prof. Fineberg, where for the first time, an high speed camera has been used to visualize how the contact interface evolves when stick-slip transition occurs.
Mechanics of overhead electrical conductors under wind excitation is a complex problem . It is described in detail in the following book:
