Infos

Professors Wen and Huang present current developments in tribology
research along with tribology fundamentals and applications,
including lubrication theory, lubrication design, friction
mechanism, wear mechanism, friction control, and their
applications. In addition to classical tribology, Wen and Huang
cover the research areas of the modern tribology, as well as the
regularities and characteristics of tribological phenomena in
practice. Furthermore, the authors present the basic theory,
numerical analysis methods, and experimental measuring techniques
of tribology as well as their applications in engineering.

* Provides a systematic presentation of tribology fundamentals
and their applications

* Discusses the current states and development trends in
tribology research

* Applies the applications to modern day engineering

* Computer programs available for download from the book's
companion site

Principles of Tribology is aimed at postgraduates and
senior-level undergraduates studying tribology, and can be used for
courses covering theory and applications. Tribology professionals
and students specializing in allied areas of mechanical engineering
and materials science will also find the book to be a helpful
reference or introduction to the topic.

Prof. Wen Shizhu, Tsinghua University, China Wen Shizhu is a Professor at Tsinghua University and a CAS Academician. His research fields cover lubrication theory, nano-tribology and the mechanism and control of friction and wear. In 1956, he participated in drafting 12th "National Scientific Development Plan," and finished the first development planning of friction, wear and lubrication engineering. In the late 80s, he was involved in drafting the "Tribology Field Plan and Development Strategy Report" for the National Science and Technology Committee, the Education Committee, and the National Natural Science Foundation Committee. Prof. Huang Ping, South China University of Technology, China Huang Ping is a Professor at South China University of Technology. He obtained his PhD degree from Department of Engineering Mechanics, Tsinghua University, and has worked in the State Key Laboratory of Tribology at Tsinghua University for eight years. He is the head of Institute of mechanical design and equipment, and the State Experimental Training Center of Basic Mechanics of South China University of Technology.
