Authors:
- Sliding Friction is the first book on this topic
- Sliding friction is one of the oldest problems in physics and certainly one of the most important from a practical point of view
- The ability to produce durable low-friction surfaces and lubricant fluids has become an important factor in the miniaturization of moving components in many technological devices
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: NanoScience and Technology (NANO)

About this book
Reviews
"This comprehensive and well-written book is entirely devoted to fundamental aspects of friction, and especially to new theoretical and technological problems of sliding friction. ... The book can be very useful to physicists, chemists, materials scientists and engineer who want to understand the basic aspects of sliding friction." (Nicolae Sandru, zbMATH 0966.74001, 2022)
