This work offers a multidisciplinary approach to static and kinetic friction, both with and without lubrication, and reviews the conventional and novel methods used to measure friction. The elementary problems found in the mechanics of sliding objects and machine components, and the effects of contact pressure, sliding speed, surface roughness, humidity and temperature on friction, are discussed.;College or university bookstores may order five or more copies at a special student price, available upon request.
