The progression of the humanity suggested new technologies, devices, materials and surface treatments which required novel lubricants and lubrication systems. Likewise, the development of high-speed trains, aircraft, space stations, computer hard discs, artificial implants, and bio-medical and many other engineering systems, have only been possible through the advances in tribology.

The Journal of Engineering Tribology, Part J of the Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), is a peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes research on engineering science associated with tribology and its applications. The journal was first published in 1994 and is published by SAGE Publications on behalf of IMechE. [1]
Tribology is the science and engineering of understanding friction, lubrication and wear phenomena for interacting surfaces in relative motion. It is highly interdisciplinary, drawing on many academic fields, including physics , chemistry , materials science , mathematics , biology and engineering . [ 1 ]
The study of wear and related processes is referred to as tribology. Wear in machine elements, together with other processes such as fatigue and creep, causes functional surfaces to degrade, eventually leading to material failure or loss of functionality. Thus, wear has large economic relevance as first outlined in the Jost Report. [1]

The simplest inlet to a centrifugal compressor is typically a simple pipe. Depending upon its use/application inlets can be very complex. They may include other components such as an inlet throttle valve, a shrouded port, an annular duct (see Figure 1.1), a bifurcated duct, stationary guide vanes/airfoils used to straight or swirl flow (see Figure 1.1), movable guide vanes (used to vary pre ...
An official STLE journal, Tribology Transactions, is published by Taylor and Francis [5] and the society is also affiliated with Tribology Letters, published by Springer. [6] The STLE also publish a monthly magazine, Tribology and Lubrication Technology. [7]
