Tribology embraces the process of friction, lubrication, and wear
in mechanical equipment. It finds particular application for
reducing the consumption of energy and fuel, and for increasing the
reliability and service life of machinery. As hard-won experience
is built up, the principles of good design are increasingly
clarified and become available for wider use.
There can be few examples for which this cycle of learning and
feedback is more economically valuable than the refinement of the
internal combustion engine - the prime mover of today's highly
mobile economy.
Based on papers presented at an IMechE seminar, "Tribology of
Internal Combustion Engines" should be read by all those working in
the fields of tribology and automotive engine technology.
Topics covered include: -Vehicle environmental legislation:
past, present, and future- Recent developments in piston
assemblies- Cylinder bore surface finish - its evolution and
specification- The development of high - stream aluminium tin
silicon copper bearing alloys for automotive
applicationsDevelopments in camshaft and follower technologyRing
zone lubrication: implications for reduced emissions and enhanced
engine lifeAutomotive lubricants: today's choices, tomorrow's
possibilitiesThe Jaguar AJ-V8 engine
