Tribosystem Analysis: A Practical Approach to the Diagnosis of Wear
Problems provides a systematic framework for conducting root cause
analyses and categorizing various types of wear. Designed
specifically for engineers without formal training in tribology,
this book: Describes a number of direct and indirect methods for
detecting and quantifying wear problems Surveys different
microscopy techniques, including those for light optics, electron
optics, and acoustic imaging Discusses the selection of wear and
friction test methods, both standard and custom, identifying
possible pitfalls for misuse Presents practical examples involving
complex materials and environments, such as those with variable
loads and operating conditions Uses universally accepted
terminology to create consistency along with the potential to
recognize similar problems and apply comparable solutions Complete
with checklists to ensure the right questions are asked during
diagnosis, Tribosystem Analysis: A Practical Approach to the
Diagnosis of Wear Problems offers pragmatic guidance for defining
wear problems in the context of the materials and their
surroundings.
"Should have broad appeal in many kinds of industry, ranging from
automotive to computers-basically any organization concerned with
products having moving parts!" -David A. Rigney, Materials Science
and Engineering Department, Ohio State University, Columbus, USA
In-Depth Coverage of Frictional Concepts Friction affects so many
aspects of daily life that most take it for granted. Arguably,
mankind's attempt to control friction dates back to the invention
of the wheel. Friction Science and Technology: From Concepts to
Applications, Second Edition presents a broad, multidisciplinary
overview of the constantly moving field of friction, spanning the
history of friction studies to the evolution of measurement
instruments. It reviews the gamut of friction test methods, ranging
from simple inclined plans to sophisticated laboratory tribometers.
The book starts with introductory concepts about friction and
progressively delves into the more subtle fundamentals of surface
contact, use of various lubricants, and specific applications such
as brakes, piston rings, and machine components. Includes American
Society of Testing and Management (ASTM) Standards This volume
covers multiple facets of friction, with numerous interesting and
unusual examples of friction-related technologies not found in
other tribology books. These include: Friction in winter sports
Friction of touch and human skin Friction of footware and
biomaterials Friction drilling of metals Friction of tires and road
surfaces Describing the tools of the trade for friction research,
this edition enables engineers to purchase or build their own
devices. It also discusses frictiona
