Tribology is the science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion, and includes the study of friction, wear and lubrication. New Directions in Tribology presents the thirty-eight papers presented as plenary or invited contributions at the World Technology Congress in London. The topics discussed at this historic event - the first international conference endorsed by almost every tribology society worldwide - covered a remarkably broad spectrum. The subjects covered reflect this breadth, and provide an excellent overview of activity and interest in the interdisciplinary subject of tribology. Key topics: history of tribology in the 20th century the question of lubrication by very thin oil films under immense pressure the wear of metals the relationship of future tribological research to real industrial problems a survey of the molecular and atomic origins of friction and boundary lubrication The contents of this volume originate from no fewer than fifteen different countries in five different continents: a truly international collection. New Directions in Tribology will be of lasting value not only as a comprehensive review of the achievements of tribology in the 20th century, but also as an inspiration for present and future engineers.
