| Description: | |||
This unit introduces students to the concepts of friction, lubrication and wear. Experimental techniques and quantitative relationships in friction and wear are addressed. Special consideration is given to the tribological behaviours of such materials as metals, ceramics, polymers and composites, and to the problem of applying fundamental knowledge to the control of friction and wear behaviour in practical situations.
