This volume contains papers presented at the International Conference on Advances in Material Science and Mechanical Engineering (ICAMSME 2020, 7-9, February 2020, India). The book reflects various aspects of engineering research in the field of mechanical engineering, viz. mate…
Man lubricates mostly with oil. Nature lubricates exclusively with water. Pure water is a poor lubricant, but the addition of proteins, especially glycoproteins, can modify surfaces to make them far more lubricating at slow speeds. Understanding how nature does this, and the phy…

This monograph addresses the foundations of mechanothermodynamics and analyzes two of its key principles?damage of everything that exists has no conceivable limits, and effective energy (entropy) flows caused by loads of a different nature do not have a cumulative property; they…
This volume contains a collection of papers from International Conference "Wear Processes 2012" which were held in Świnoujście, Poland, from 12 to 14 of September 2012. The Conference is organized periodically and is a continuation of the seminars series concerning "Testing and …
