• Sommario/riassunto: Recent advances into the wear of advanced materialsIn general, wear is currently defined as "the progressive loss of material from the operating surface of a body occurring as a result of relative motion at the surface". It is related to surface interactions and more specifically to the form of contact due to relative motion. Wear is rarely catastrophic but does reduce the operating efficiency of machine components and structures. At this time of economic crisis, this is a very important field of study because of the huge impact the wear of materials has on the economy.<br
