This prestigious Congress brings together the principal engineers, scientists and practitioners working in tribology around the world. This major international Congress is the showcase for more than 800 papers which represent the best in tribological research and industrial applications. One-page abstracts of these important papers are presented here in an easily accessible, single volume, formaing a vital record of work in tribology.Topics covered include: Think film bearingsLubricant chemistry and rheologyEHL and boundary lubricationMagnetic storage systemsWear in ceramic systemsBiotribologyRolling bearingsManufacturing and maintenanceEnvironmental issuesMicro- and nano-tribologyAll those concerned with tribology need to have access to this vital reference source.
The IMechE is the United Kingdom's qualifying body for mechanical engineers and the home of mechanical engineers for over 150 years. Around 75,000 engineers world-wide are members.
