TL;DR: Both simple and more complex adsorbates that are confined in various environments (slit or cylindrical pores and also disordered porous materials) are considered and how confinement affects the glass transition is addressed.

Molecular layering of water at surfaces and origin of repulsive hydration forces
TL;DR: The short-range hydration force between two molecularly smooth surfaces of mica containing hydrated potassium ions is measured and is found to be overall repulsive but not monotonic at separations, rationalize apparently irreconcilable observations on clay–water systems and go some way towards clarifying the origin and nature of hydration forces.

The nonlinear nature of friction
TL;DR: Recent experiments coupled to theoretical modelling have made great advances in unifying apparently diverse phenomena and revealed many subtle and often non-intuitive aspects of matter in motion, which stem from the nonlinear nature of the problem.

Microfluidics: The no-slip boundary condition
TL;DR: A review of recent experimental, numerical and theoretical investigations on the subject can be found in this article, where the authors present a complex behavior at a liquid/solid interface involving an interplay of many physico-chemical parameters, including wetting, shear rate, pressure, surface charge, surface roughness, impurities and dissolved gas.

Fluidity of water confined to subnanometre films
TL;DR: It is observed that the effective viscosity of water remains within a factor of three of its bulk value, even when it is confined to films in the thickness range 3.5 ± 1 to 0.0 ± 0.4 nm, which contrasts markedly with the behaviour of organic solvents, whose visCosity diverges when confined to Films thinner than about 5–8 molecular layers.
