Synopsis

Tribology of Fiber Materials and Composites presents the latest advances in this important research field. The book explores the friction and wear characteristics of various types of composites, namely polymeric, at both dry and wet conditions that influence the service life. Focusing on proficient tribological testing methods it examines the impact of testing conditions on overall performance. Along with relevant case study examples, the book provides valuable insights into the factors affecting tribological performance in a diverse range of different sectors including automotive, aerospace, and marine applications. Covering materials selection, test methodologies, and parameter choices, the book will provide valuable insights into the latest advancements on the analysis of friction and wear properties, as well as the factors that influence tribological behaviour for a broad range of composites made from different types of fibers. The book will be a valuable reference resource for academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists and engineers, manufacturers, and other professionals who want to know more about the tribological behavior and performance of fiber-reinforced composites and their associated applications.
