scientist United States

Adel Djellouli is a materials scientist at Harvard University who gained attention for his research on the sounds produced by sneakers during basketball games. His recent study examined the mechanics behind the squeaking noise associated with players' movements on the court, revealing that the sound results from rapid changes in the shoe's sole as it interacts with the floor. Djellouli's work not only satisfies curiosity about a common phenomenon in sports but also has broader implications for understanding friction in various scientific contexts.
