The book is written for the non-specialist, with an emphasis on introducing technical concepts graphically rather than through algebraic equations. In the second edition, the graphic content is enhanced by an additional series of colour and monochrome photographs that illustrate key aspects Surfaces (Technology)Corrosion and anti-corrosivesMechanical wearFracture mechanicsSurfaces (Technology)Corrosion and anti-corrosives.Mechanical wear.Fracture mechanics.620/.44Batchelor A.
