Tribology is a complex topic with its own terminology and specialized concepts, yet is vitally important throughout all engineering disciplines, including mechanical design, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics and biomedical engineering. This edition includes updated material on the hydrodynamic aspects of tribology as well as new advances in the field of biotribology, with a focus throughout on the engineering applications of tribology. New to this edition are end-of-chapter problems and an accompanying solutions manual, increasing the books value as a textbook. The book offers an extensive range if illustrations which communicate the basic concepts of tribology in engineering better than text alone. All chapters include an extensive list of references and citations to facilitate further in-depth research and thorough navigation through particular subjects covered in each chapter. * Includes newly devised end-of-chapter problems, as well as an accompanying solutions manual. * Provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of wear, lubrication and friction in an accessible manner designed to aid non-specialists. * Gives a reader-friendly approach to the subject using a graphic illustrative method to break down the typically complex problems associated with tribology 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aTribology 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 700 1 $aBatchelor, Andrew W.$eauthor$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0477262 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750678364$z9780750678360$w(DLC) 2005014320$w(OCoLC)60515157 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750678360$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 41$zTable of contents only$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0513/2005014320.html 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0622/2005014320-d.html 907 $a.b13653969$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003241419707536 996 $aEngineering tribology$91463915 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gne $h0$i0
