State diagram depicting the β-ν/M0 boundary between rolling and firm adhesion. The solid line corresponds to dimensionless parameters in the upper left corner of the figure. Other lines represent boundaries resulting from replacement of an individual parameter with an indicated value. Surprisingly, β is proportional to ν/M0 for all parameter values, leading to a unique scaling for the onset of rolling adhesion.
