Abstract
The key features of tribology – interfacial phenomena of interacting bodies in relative motion – are as origin of friction and wear scientifically interesting and have important applications in technology and engineering. The interfacial interactions have been studied in various theoretical and experimental approaches. Depending on the scope of the investigation and the nature of the tribological solid/fluid/solid or solid/solid system under study, these approaches apply contact mechanics, hydrodynamics, and rheology as well as solid state physics and chemistry. Accordingly, also various experimental techniques have been used, ranging from Coulomb's classical tribometer to the contemporary atomic force microscope.
