Abstract: It's coming again, the new collection that this site has. To complete your curiosity, we offer the favorite friction an introduction to tribology book as the choice today. This is a book that will show you even new to old thing. Forget it; it will be right for you. Well, when you are really dying of friction an introduction to tribology, just pick it. You know, this book is always making the fans to be dizzy if not to find.

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic mechanisms of wear and lubrication of gold-based contact materials, particularly eectrodeposits, from the point of view of separable connectors and instrument slip rings, are reviewed.
Abstract: The basic mechanisms of wear and lubrication of gold-based contact materials, particularly eiectrodeposits, from the point of view of separable connectors and instrument slip rings, are reviewed. Specific recommendations are made for optimizing contact finishes for practical devices. Included are a discussion of the following. 1) The categories of metal transfer and wear (such as prow formation) and of transition phenomena that control the sliding mechanism. 2) Theories that have been advanced to explain sliding behavior based On bulk and on surface properties of the contact material. 3) The dependence of contact lubrication on physical properties of the lubricant and topography of the contact. 4) The potential role of underplate in improving a gold contact materials system, including reduction in wear and friction, minimization of susceptibility to corrosion in polluted atmospheres, and elimination of degradation due to thermal diffusion of elements from the substrate through the gold.
67 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a framework within which the development of composites as self-lubricating materials can be considered has been formulated, and the tribological inadequacies of single-phase materials and the specific functions of various types of additive are outlined.
32 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the friction and wear during sliding of specimens of Nimonic 75, C263, Nimonic 108 and Incoloy 901 on like specimens in air nominally at room temperature were investigated.
21 citations
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study is reported in which nominally sharp cutting tools having ground-on flank wear lands were used to machine zinc, brass, and aluminium workpieces and the results indicate that the laws of sliding friction are obeyed at the interface between the flank wear land and the workpiece material at low speeds.

TL;DR: In this article, the friction and wear behavior of polycrystalline hexagonal cobalt was determined under normal atmospheric conditions, using heavy loads and sliding speeds ranging from 0.92 centimeters/sec to 36.8 cm/sec.
Abstract: The friction and wear behavior of polycrystalline hexagonal cobalt was determined under normal atmospheric conditions, using heavy loads and sliding speeds ranging from 0.92 cm/sec to 36.8 cm/sec. Very uniform wear was observed for most conditions together with a low coefficient of friction. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that this desirable behavior is caused by the formation of a preferred orientation during sliding. Under high-load high-speed conditions a different mode of wear was observed, best described as brittle disintegration. When cobalt was alloyed with 8 percent iron and thus rendered face-centered cubic, a deeply torn wear track, an increased initial wear rate and a high coefficient of friction were obtained. Presented as an American Society of Lubrication Engineers paper at the ASME/ASLE International Lubrication Conference held in New York City, October 9–12, 1972
