Fatigue and wear are the most damaging phenomena affecting machines
since they result in some 90% of breakdowns. This tutorial book
systematically develops a unified overview, named tribo-fatigue,
which aims to address the complex wear-fatigue damages.
Tribo-fatigue synthesizes aspects of three disciplines: mechanical
fatigue, tribology, and reliability of mechanical systems.
Tribo-fatigue opens new perspectives for increasing the durability
of machines according to the most important criteria of their
serviceability. Detailed damage measurement and wear-fatigue tests
that enable engineers to design more durable and reliable systems
are developed. The book is intended for advanced students,
researchers and engineers.
