As with the previous release, the fourth edition of Engineering Tribology provides a thorough understanding of friction and wear using technologies such aslubrication and special materials. Tribology is a complex topic with its own terminology and specialized concepts, yet is vitally important throughout all engineering disciplines, including mechanical design, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics and biomedical engineering. This edition includes updated material on thehydrodynamic aspects of tribology as well as new advances in the field of biotribology, with a focus throughout on the engineering applications of tribology. Includes newly devised end-of-chapter problems, as well as an accompanying solutions manual. Provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of wear,lubrication and friction in an accessible manner designed to aid non-specialists. Gives a reader-friendly approach to the subject using a graphic illustrative method to break down the typically complex problems associated with tribology
