Description
Superlubricity is defined as a sliding regime in which friction or resistance to sliding vanishes. It has been shown that energy can be
conserved by further reducing/removing friction in moving mechanical systems and this book includes contributions from world-renowned
scientists who address some of the most fundamental research issues in overcoming friction. Superlubricity reviews the
latest methods and materials in this area of research that are aimed at removing friction in nano-to-micro scale machines and large scale
engineering components. Insight is also given into the atomic-scale origins of friction in general and superlubricity while other chapters
focus on experimental and practical aspects or impacts of superlubricity that will be very useful for broader industrial community.
Audience
With both the scientific and industrial appeal, this book is for scientists, engineers, and other professionals in the field.
