Tribology, the study of friction, wear, and lubrication, is currently in a state of flux characterized by numerous challenges and counter-challenges to the facts and theories that have been proposed. With each passing year, however, the subject grows in importance: energy consumption that must be minimized, and the durability of machines extended as far as possible. This volume provides an overview of tribology and a forum for diverse views on this crucial subject. The contributors, representing both industry and academia, are all leading authorities in the field. Their comments and observations will be of great interest to researchers in mechanical engineering, materials science, energy technology, and industry.
Contents: Preface and Introduction; Surface Topography; Physical Properties; Chemical Properties; Surface and Interfacial phenomena; Friction; Wear Mechanisms; Thermochemical Effects; Wear in Processing; Polymer Wear; Wear Monitoring; Wear Prevention; Boundary Lubrication; Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication; Systems Approach; Documentation of Tribology Literature.
