A fully updated version of the popular Introduction to Tribology, the second edition of this leading tribology text introduces the major developments in the understanding and interpretation of friction, wear and lubrication.  Considerations of friction and wear have been fully revised to include recent analysis and data work, and friction mechanisms have been reappraised in light of current developments.  In this edition, the breakthroughs in tribology at the nano- and micro- level as well as recent developments in nanotechnology and magnetic storage technologies are introduced. A new chapter on the emerging field of green tribology and biomimetics is included. Introduces the topic of tribology from a mechanical engineering, mechanics and materials science points of viewNewly updated chapter covers both the underlying theory and the current applications of tribology to industryUpdated write-up on nanotribology and nanotechnology  and introduction of a new chapter on green tribology and biomimeticsEnables readers to reinforce their knowledge of the topic with a newly added problems section which features on the book’s companion websiteContent: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–8): Chapter 2 Solid Surface Characterization (pages 9–89): Chapter 3 Contact Between Solid Surfaces (pages 91–155): Chapter 4 Adhesion (pages 157–198): Chapter 5 Friction (pages 199–271): Chapter 6 Interface Temperature of Sliding Surfaces (pages 273–313): Chapter 7 Wear (pages 315–397): Chapter 8 Fluid Film Lubrication (pages 399–500): Chapter 9 Boundary Lubrication and Lubricants (pages 501–523): Chapter 10 Nanotribology (pages 525–613): Chapter 11 Friction and Wear Screening Test Methods (pages 615–629): Chapter 12 Tribological Components and Applications (pages 631–681): Chapter 13 Green Tribology and Biomimetics (pages 683–696):
