Download or read book Friction and Lubrication in Mechanical Design written by Shirley Seireg and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-09-01 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how to control mechanisms of contact mechanics, heat generation and transfer, friction, noise generation, lubrication, and surface damage due to mechanical and thermal variables. Friction and Lubrication in Mechanical Design reviews various classical and new tribology problems beginning with history and ending with numerical optimization and examples, simplifies access to information for predicting and preventing friction and wear, and provides a useful tool for everyone involved in mechanical design, or in machinery monitoring.
