Publisher's Note "Friction, Lubrication & Wear Technology" is the work of more than 250 contributing authors & reviewers & addresses all aspects of the subject, including basic concepts, methods of laboratory testing & analysis, materials selection, field diagnosis of tribological problems, & complex systems affected by friction & wear. This volume contains a wealth of useful information on tribology for the materials professional--& a wide range of materials information for those with backgrounds in mechanics or lubricant chemistry. Includes illustrations, graphs, charts, tabulations, & comparisons for easy visual reference. Contents include 99 articles divided into 8 major sections: * Solid Friction * Lubricants & Lubrication - Wear * Laboratory Characterization Techniques * Systematic Diagnosis of Friction & Wear & Test Data * Friction & Wear of Components * Materials for Friction & Wear Applications * Surface Treatment & Coatings for Friction & Wear Control. Includes a glossary of more than 500 technical engineering terms.
Industry Reviews With v.4 (mid-1991) the great series Metals Handbook (cited in BCL3, Sheehy ) was renamed the ASM Handbook to allow inclusion of non-metallic materials -- the new broader interest of this association. The 99 articles in 8 sections are contributed by some 250 authors. They address all aspects of the subject, including basic concepts, methods of laboratory testing and analysis, materials selection, field diagnosis of tribological problems, and complex systems affected by friction and wear. Of value to the materials professional and those with backgrounds in mechanics or lubricant chemistry. Includes illustrations, graphs, charts, tabulations, and comparisons for easy visual reference.
