Physical analysis for tribology
Book
·
OSTI ID:226946
This textbook by Dr. Quinn contains an interesting and useful combination of subject matter related to tribology and methods of surface analysis pertinent to wear problems. A brief introductory chapter includes a good overview of wear phenomena and mechanisms. Three chapters, comprising about one-third of the book, discuss surface and surface film diagnostic and analysis methods. These include optical, electrical and magnetic techniques as well as electron and x-ray diffraction methods. Considerable detail is provided on background related to crystallography and diffraction. Those not concerned with technique per se, will likely omit these sections. The last five chapters are core subject matter for students, engineers, and researchers interested in wear phenomena. Dr. Quinn draws considerable material from his own extensive background in the area, as well as a good selection of other examples from the research literature.
