Abstract

A brief review is presented of the development of work carried out mainly by Derjaguin and co-workers since the end of the 1940s concerning electrophysical phenomena accompanying the rupture of the adhesive bond and the failure of solids under mechanical loads (e.g. the electrical charging of fresh surfaces and gas discharge processes due to the excess charges, and the emission of electrons and X-rays, as well as cold nuclear fusion). A correlation between the electron emission phenomenon and mechano-chemical processes in solids is noted.
