Table of ContentsReviewsThe approach when friction is treated as a fundamental force of nature is definitely novel and very general. The relationship between friction-induced instabilities and friction-induced self-organization discussed in the book is an important topic ... . Much progress has been achieved in the field in the last decade and the book, reviewing the state of the art in the field, will be useful for a broad range of experts in the field of tribology. I also should emphasize the detailed treatment of self-healing materials in the book in the context of tribology, which is one of the hottest topics in the modern material science. -Edward Bormashenko, Ariel University, Israel The book by Nosonovsky and Mortazavi presents a novel and intriguing approach to the studies of friction. The authors start with basic principles of non-linear dynamics and self-organization and apply them for analysis of friction in a daring attempt to deduce this phenomenon from general thermodynamics of non-equilibrium states. The authors succeeded to achieve clear and deep theory that, in particular, provides an interpretation of the events observed in recent experiments and explains a wide class of effects induced by friction. -Eugene Kagan, The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel While friction has been a largely discussed topic in different fields of science and engineering, there are lots of theoretical and practical questions that remain unanswered. This book takes a new theoretical approach in relating friction to very fundamental laws of nature. Hence, the book tries to show how real practical cases work under such theoretical observations. The book shows a very interesting combination of theoretical observations and practical necessities. -Pradeep L.
