Tribology is the study of friction, wear and lubrication. Recently,
the concept of "green tribology" as "the science and technology of
the tribological aspects of ecological balance and of environmental
and biological impacts" was introduced. The field of green
tribology includes tribological technology that mimics living
nature (biomimetic surfaces) and thus is expected to be
environmentally friendly, the control of friction and wear that is
of importance for energy conservation and conversion, environmental
aspects of lubrication and surface modification techniques, and
tribological aspects of green applications such as wind-power
turbines or solar panels. This book is the first comprehensive
volume on green tribology. The chapters are prepared by leading
experts in their fields and cover such topics as biomimetics,
environmentally friendly lubrication, tribology of wind turbines
and renewable sources of energy, and ecological impact of new
technologies of surface treatment.
