This title is designed to provide a clear and comprehensive
overview of tribology. The book introduces the notion of a surface
in tribology where a solid surface is described from topographical,
structural, mechanical, and energetic perspectives. It also
describes the principal techniques used to characterize and analyze
surfaces. The title then discusses what may be called the
fundamentals of tribology by introducing and describing the
concepts of adhesion, friction, wear, and lubrication. The book
focuses on the materials used in tribology, introducing the major
classes of materials used, either in their bulk states or as
coatings, including both protective layers and other coatings used
for decorative purposes. Of especial importance to the tribology
community are sections that provide the latest information on
Nanotribology, Wear, Lubrication, and Wear-Corrosion:
Tribocorrosion and Erosion-Corrosion.
