This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.

One way to minimize dynamic friction in advanced productive nanosystems is to minimize bearing surface area.

(wiki-TODO: add main explanation here)

Notes

Minimizing bearing surface area is not as effective as reducing operation seeds.
– But once quadratic efficiency gains from slowdown are maxed out (1/10th the speed => 1/100th the losses)
– Reducing bearing contact area can still give some linear gains (1/10th the area => 1/10th the losses)

Note that initial gains from slowdown are diminished by
an increase in surface area from more machinery fully compensating the loss in throughput
So effectively it's only a linear gain in efficiency.
For details see: Increasing bearing area to decrease friction
Supsequent sole focus on reduction of bearing area excludes reduction of number of machinery. It only focuses of bearing surface area per machine unit. Like e.g. a


Macroscale friction power losses (normal-force x friction-coefficient x sliding-speed)
is not area dependent but it's contribution to total friction is negligable.
