It emphasises that tribology can be applied to improve aspects of machine performance at all stages of their lifecycle from design, through manufacture, usage, and finally, disposal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eViewing the total picture of lubrication and wear offer tremendous opportunities such as reducing the loss of energy due to excessive friction and wear, reducing the overall use of lubricants, extending the useful life of equipment and components, reducing costly down-time of equipment and machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHighly respected experts have written specially commissioned chapters to explore and explain the elements of tribology which complement the \u003ci\u003eTotal Tribology\u003c\/i\u003e approach, representing the latest thoughts on tackling wear and lubrication problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCONTENTS INCLUDE:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe possible impact of tribology on future machine design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials in tribology – opportunities and challenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrends in lubrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of solid lubricants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe role of tribology in manufacturing processes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorous ceramic water hydrostatic bearings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign of abrasive machining processes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn the lubrication of power plants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTribology in aerospace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFriction prediction and cold starting of diesel engines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54217869001048,"sku":"9781860583933","price":235.54,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/total-tribology","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
