Nanomechanics for Coatings and Engineering Surfaces: Test Methods, Development Strategies, Modeling Approaches, and Applications provides readers with an array of best practices for nanoindentation measurements as well as related small-scale test methods and how to translate test results into the development of improved coatings. A core theme of the book is explaining to readers exactly how, when, and why the nanomechanical properties of engineered surfaces relate to their wear resistance.
The book starts with chapters that introduce the development and importance of nanomechanical testing and linkages between wear resistance and the mechanical properties of coatings before moving into discussions of various experimental methods and techniques, such as nanoindentation, continuous stiffness measurements, nano-scratch methods, high-temperature testing, nano-impact testing, and more. Other sections discuss modeling approaches such as finite element analysis, atomistic and molecular dynamics, and analytical methods. Design strategies and industrial applications are covered next, with a final section looking at trends and future directions.
- Provides best practices in nanoindentation measurements and related small-scale test methods
- Demonstrates how to use test results to develop improved coatings
- Outlines modeling approaches and numerical simulations
- Highlights selected applications for metallic nanocomposites, tribological coatings, solid lubricants, and aerospace coatings
- Shows future directions for simulation of complex wear scenarios

About the Author
Ben is currently a Visiting Professor in Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds, and the University of Huddersfield. He is very active in collaborative research with other NanoTest users with over 100 published papers in:
Developing new nano-mechanical test methods
Applying them to study mechanical and tribological properties of thin films and coatings
Environmental sensitivity in polymers
Professor Tomasz Liskiewicz is Head of Department of Engineering at Manchester Metropolitan University. He has over 20 years of international academic and engineering experience from leading research institutions in the UK, France, Canada, and Poland. His research interests focus on surface engineering and tribology of functional surfaces, with a particular interest in fretting wear phenomena. His work has been published in such journals as Applied Surface Engineering; Tribology International; Surface and Coatings Technology; Wear and Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research. He has presented at an array of international conferences and has been involved in fretting research for 20 years, with a main focus on wear processes. He previously spent 2 years in Alberta, Canada, working as a Senior Scientist at Charter Coating, leading material testing projects for the oil and gas industry. He was elected Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in London in 2014 and is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics in London where he acts as Chair of the Tribology Group Committee.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPrices, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us.
