Provides comprehensive information on the tribological aspects of advanced ceramic materials for all uses that require controlled friction and wear resistance.

Tribology is emerging from the realm of steam engines and crank-case lubricants and becoming key to vital new technologies such as nanotechnology and MEMS. Wear
