Abstract
Duncan Dowson's editorship of <i>Wear</i>
Highlights
From the outset Wear had been an international journal; when Duncan started as Editor half of all its contributions came from the USA and the UK, with Japan and India being the most-represented countries
The number of papers published more than doubled over 15 years: many of the new authors came from China which had hardly been represented at all in the early 1980s but by 1997/1998 contributed more than one-sixth of the total
As his successor as Editor, and as a researcher in tribology and more recently in the history of the subject, Duncan provided very wise and ever-friendly support, and inspiration as a careful researcher and an energetic and imaginative scientist and engineer
Summary
From the outset Wear had been an international journal; when Duncan started as Editor half of all its contributions came from the USA and the UK, with Japan and India being the most-represented countries.
