Synopsis

Friction, wear, and lubrication can determine whether a mechanical system performs reliably—or fails prematurely.

Tribology for Engineers gives you a practical, connected understanding of what happens when engineering surfaces meet in relative motion. Instead of treating friction, wear, lubrication, materials, and component design as isolated subjects, this comprehensive engineering reference shows you how they interact across complete tribological systems.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• Analyze surface roughness, asperity contact, Hertzian stress, and contact behavior
• Understand adhesive, abrasive, fatigue, corrosive, erosive, and fretting wear
• Apply hydrodynamic, elastohydrodynamic, mixed, and boundary lubrication principles
• Select oils, greases, additives, solid lubricants, materials, and protective coatings
• Interpret wear tests, friction measurements, lubricant condition data, and failure evidence
• Improve the reliability of bearings, gears, seals, and other machine elements
• Connect laboratory findings with real operating conditions and component service life
• Explore condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, nanotribology, biotribology, and green tribology

Black-and-white instructional infographics, chapter summaries, a technical glossary, and carefully organized references reinforce the book’s core concepts. Its systems-based approach helps engineering students, technicians, designers, maintenance professionals, and practicing mechanical engineers move beyond memorized formulas and develop sound diagnostic and design judgment.

Built on established tribology principles and widely recognized engineering models, this guide equips you to anticipate friction and wear problems before they become costly failures.
