TLDR
This article primarily covers the tactile interactions of human fingers or hands with surface-haptics displays by focusing on the three most popular actuation methods: vibrotactile, electrostatic, and ultrasonic.
Abstract
In this article, we review the current technology underlying surface haptics that converts passive touch surfaces to active ones (machine haptics), our perception of tactile stimuli displayed through active touch surfaces (human haptics), their potential applications (human-machine interaction), and finally, the challenges ahead of us in making them available through commercial systems. This article primarily covers the tactile interactions of human fingers or hands with surface-haptics displays by focusing on the three most popular actuation methods: vibrotactile, electrostatic, and ultrasonic.

Elastohydrodynamic friction of robotic and human fingers on soft micropatterned substrates.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report a scaling law that governs the peak friction values of elastohydrodynamic lubrication on patterned surfaces, where the peaks arise due to a separation of length scales in the lubricant flow.

The friction and lubrication of solids

TL;DR: Tabor and Bowden as mentioned in this paper reviewed the many advances made in this field during the past 36 years and outlined the achievements of Frank Philip Bowden, and reviewed the behavior of non-metals, especially elastomers; elastohydrodynamic lubrication; and the wear of sliding surfaces.

Sketching User Experiences: Getting the Design Right and the Right Design

Bill Buxton
TL;DR: Sketching User Experiences as mentioned in this paper is a collection of sketches of user interfaces that are used in the design process of new products and services. But design as described here depends on different skillsets-each essential, but on their own, none sufficient.

Sensation and Perception .—I.

H. Charlton Bastian
- 23 Dec 1869 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that different meanings have been attached to the words sensation and perception by different writers; and this diversity of meaning is to be met with in physiological as well as in more strictly philosophical works.
