Tribology on the Small Scale: A Modern Textbook on Friction, Lubrication, and Wear

04.12.2019

In recent decades, tribology field has seen a great interest in friction and wear processes occurring at the micro- and nanoscale. This interest has led to the development of a new branch of tribology focusing on the small [...]

Antiwear tribofilm growth – AFM study

14.03.2016

In a wide range of tribological components, the lubricant is not capable of separating the surfaces and areas of metal-to-metal contact occurs. However, the metal-to-metal contact area can be minimized by the action of additives, [...]
