Books like Engineering tribology by G. W. Stachowiak


Engineering Tribology introduces the fundamentals of tribology and shows how its componentsβ€”wear, friction, and lubricationβ€”interconnect to form a coherent discipline. The book explains mechanisms of wear and lubrication in an accessible manner, with a focus on controlling wear through lubricant additives, solid lubricants, and surface coatings. Extensive coverage of coating deposition methods and their effectiveness is provided, alongside practical numerical analysis of hydrodynamic lubrication supported by MATLAB computer programs. With over 1,000 references, the text equips readers to apply tribological concepts to reduce mechanical failure, cut maintenance costs, and lower energy consumption.
First publish date: 1993
