This book covers rather a wide range of questions, primarily from
tribological science of materials. It appeared possible, using a
systematic approach, to divide it contents into four parts, including a
theoretical chapter and three sections that successively cover the
rules of wear of machine parts under sliding friction, features of
material and equipment wear.
The work also deals with the questions of equipment
reliability. In this connection, a number of strategic questions on
machine building and machinery repair are of great interest for Russia
and other countries.
