Engineering Tribology

As with the previous edition, the third edition of Engineering Tribology provides a thorough understanding of friction and wear. Tribology is a complex topic with engineering engineering, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics and biomedical engineering. This edition includes the hydrodynamic aspects of biology.

New to this edition are end-of-chapter problems and textbook. The book offers an extensive range of symbols. All chapters are included in the research and thorough navigation.

* Includes the newly devised end-of-chapter problems, as well as the accompanying solutions manual.
* Provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of non-specialists.
* Gives a reader-friendly. Problems with tribology.
