15th Wear of Materials

by Peter J. Blau, Steven L. Shaffer

Overview

These proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Wear of Materials focus on the friction and wear of materials in various applications under different environments from the nanometer scale to the meter scale.

The conference provides a unique international forum for researchers and practitioners from different disciplines to exchange latest results. Coverage includes:

• Wear assessment and monitoring
• Wear modeling, mechanisms, mapping and prediction
• Wear-corrosion testing and control
• Surface engineering for wear and wear-corrosion control
• Development of new wear test methods and wear test methodologies
• Wear of materials for biomedical applications
• Wear of non-equilibrium materials: from atomic dimensions to the micro-scale
• Wear of hard and superhard materials
• Wear of materials in the earthmoving, minerals processing and mining industries
