31. It might be worth pointing out that with the data analysis procedure proposed, it is possible to calculate the errors of any parameter even if general microscopic friction laws are assumed. This is contrary, e.g., to the method proposed by Putman et al. (Ref. 17) which is only applicable to a linear model.
