Description
Summary:"This book brings a vision of promoting greener, cleaner, and eco-friendly environment highlighting sustainable solutions in tribology via development of self-lubricating materials, green additives in lubricants, natural fiber reinforced materials and biomimetic approaches. Backed by supporting schematic diagrams, data tables and illustrations for easy understanding, it focusses on the recent advancements in tribology and sustainability. Global sustainability and regional requirements are addressed through chapters on natural composites, green lubricants, biomedical and wind energy systems with a dedicated chapter on Global Sustainability Scenario. Features: Highlights sustainability via new tribological approaches and how such methods are essential. Covers theoretical aspects of various tribological topics concerning mechanical and material designs for energy-efficient systems. Includes practical global sustainability based on the regional requirement of tribological research and sustainable impact. Reviews tribology of green lubricants, green additives, and lightweight materials. Discusses topics related to biomimetics and bio-tribology. This book aims at researchers, professionals and graduate students in Tribology, Surface Engineering, Mechanical Design, Materials Engineering, including Mechanical, Aerospace, Chemical and Environmental Engineering"--
