  • Rheology and Elastohydrodynamic Lubricationby B.O. Jacobson

    Elsevier Science 1991; US$ 213.00

    This book gives a thorough overview on recent developments in lubricant rheology, elastohydrodynamic lubrication and the effects of surface roughness and particulate contamination in the lubricant on the overall behaviour of a heavily loaded lubricated contact. One of the aims of the book is to make clear to the reader that a Newtonian model for the... more...

  • Fluid Film Lubricationby D. Berthe; D. Dowson; M. Godet; C.M. Taylor

    Elsevier Science 1987; US$ 170.00

    The thirteenth Leeds-Lyon Tribology Symposium was devoted to the topic of Fluid Film Lubrication in celebration of the centenary of the publication of the classical paper by Professor Osborne Reynolds in which he identified the mechanism of hydrodynamic lubrication. These proceedings contain more than seventy papers, written by authors from all over... more...

  • Friction Surface Phenomenaby G.P. Shpenkov

    Elsevier Science 1995; US$ 213.00

    This monograph summarises results of research in some surface phenomena, observed in mechanical treatment and friction. In particular the book is devoted to urgent problems of the science of friction and wear and provides insight into the mechanism of the phenomena that cause, on the one hand, anomalously low coefficients of friction and wear (the... more...

  • Hydrostatic Lubricationby R. Bassani; B. Piccigallo

    Elsevier Science 1992; US$ 215.00

    Hydrostatic lubrication is characterized by the complete separation of the conjugated surfaces of a kinematic pair, by means of a film of fluid, which is pressurized by an external piece of equipment. Its distinguishing features are lack of wear, low friction, high load capacity, a high degree of stiffness and the ability to damp vibrations. This... more...

  • Interface Dynamicsby D. Berthe; D. Dowson; M. Godet; C.M. Taylor

    Elsevier Science 1988; US$ 200.00

    Many tribologists are today not only explicitly concerned with interface action but also with interface composition. This proceedings volume presents a timely review on topics ranging from interface dynamics to interface elimination, covering all factors such as contact stress fields, interface rheology, and boundary slip, that control the passage... more...

  • Tribology of Miniature Systemsby Z. Rymuza

    Elsevier Science 1998; US$ 200.00

    The tribology of miniature systems is quite different from the tribology of large machinery. This is the first publication to cover on an academic level both the basic concepts of the tribology of miniature systems and some areas of its practical application. A comprehensive survey is given on the specific problems encountered in this field, providing... more...

  • Tribology of Thin Layersby I. Iliuc

    Elsevier Science 1980; US$ 200.00

  • Lubricants and Special Fluidsby V. Stepina; V. Vesely

    Elsevier Science 1992; US$ 213.00

    The constitution, properties, production and applications of lubricants and related fluids of all states of aggregation are reviewed in this volume. Special attention is devoted to synthetic lubricants and to additives for lubricants. Standards of quality are listed, together with systems of classification and the most important specifications and... more...

  • Wear Particlesby D. Dowson; G. Dalmaz; T.H.C. Childs; C.M. Taylor; M. Godet

    Elsevier Science 1992; US$ 213.00

    The Leeds-Lyon symposia have well established themselves in the tribological calendar. Industrial progress requires a better understanding of interfacial phenomena than now exists and it is exciting to see that the topics addressed in these proceedings volumes are at the forefront of progress in tribological research. These proceedings contain 61 papers... more...

  • Microscopic Aspects of Adhesion and Lubricationby J.M. Georges

    Elsevier Science 1982; US$ 213.00
