Presenting a new approach to the development of an emerging generation of surface-engineered nano-structured materials, this book discusses such topics as self-organization phenomenon, physical and chemical aspects of friction, and the methods of friction control in advanced materials and coatings. Application of these new generations of materials are instrumental in transferring tribosystems working under extreme external impact with excessive wear rate into milder friction conditions. This reference demonstrates that the abnormal capacity of self-adaptive materials to resist severe friction conditions is associated with their nanoscale structure as well as synergistic alloying. > In our present era of nanoscience and nanotechnology, new materials are poised to take center stage in dramatically improving friction and wear behavior under extreme conditions.
