Description

This volume contains 35 present ations on the developments and advances made in tribology. The first five plenary sessions, discussed issues of significant importance to modern tribology: history of tribology in the 20th century; the question of lubrication by very thin oil films under immense pressures; the wear of metals; the relationship of future tribological research to real industrial problems; and a survey of the currrent understanding of the molecular and atomic origins of friction and boundary lubrication.
