Paperback. Tribological Behaviour of Advanced Materials examines the complex discipline of tribology, investigating the frictional, wear, and lubrication properties of cutting-edge advanced materials used in a diverse range of modern engineering applications. The book provides readers (researcher and engineer) with a comprehensive examination of the fundamental mechanisms that control friction, wear, and lubrication in advanced materials and explores important subjects such as surface interactions, contact mechanics, lubrication regimes, and wear mechanisms. It also includes extensive details on tribological characteristics, causes of failure, and methods to improve the performance of different modern materials.The book equips reader with a profound understanding of the underlying concepts that control tribological behavior. These concrete illustrations will offer valuable perspectives that will empower researchers and engineers to make well-informed decisions when it comes to selecting materials, engineering surfaces, and designing components that fit the final intended use. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
