Abstract

In the study of the wear failures, it is usual to consider the wear processes defined with reference to the type and geometry of relative motion between two mating surfaces (Fig. 4.1). In general, each wear process is due to one (or more) wear mechanisms . Table 5.1 lists some examples of tribological systems with the main wear mechanism. In the next paragraphs, the characteristics of the main wear processes will be outlined, including the methods to control them. The role of materials will be also indicated, although more detailed information on the materials’ selection and surface engineering in tribology will be given in the next two chapters.
