This text introduces the associations between contact mechanics and friction, offering a deep understanding of tribology. It deals with the associated phenomena of contact, adhesion, capillary forces, friction, lubrication, and wear from a single viewpoint.

The English edition of "Contact Mechanics and Friction" lying before you is, for st the most part, the text of the 1 German edition (Springer Publishing, 2009). The book was expanded by the addition of a chapter on frictional problems in ear- quake research. Additionally, Chapter 15 was supplemented by a section on elasto-hydrodynamics. The problem sections of several chapters were enriched by the addition of new examples. This book would not have been possible without the active support of J. Gray, who translated it from the German edition. I would like to thank Prof. G. G. - charyan and Prof. S. Sobolev for discussions and critical comments on the chapter over earthquake dynamics. Dr. R. Heise made significant contributions to the - velopment and correction of new problems. I would like to convey my affecti- ate thanks to Dr. J. Starcevic for her complete support during the composition of this book. I want to thank Ms. Ch. Koll for her patience in creating figures and Dr. R. Heise, M. Popov, M. Heß, S. Kürscher, and B. Grzemba for their help in pro- reading. Berlin, November 2009 V.L. Popov Preface to the German Edition

From the reviews:

"Popov puts a reader equipped with good intuition into a position to tackle quite a few tribological problems in a semi-quantitative fashion. ... The book is organized extremely well ... . The large number of solved problems at the end of each chapter is a definite advantage of the book. ... great benefit to those who teach tribology. ... Meaningful references are provided for those who want to refine the material as a teacher or to indulge in tribological research." (Martin Müser, Tribology Letters, July, 2010)

"This book is clearly written, excellently illustrated, and therefore, can be used also by scientists specializing in biological surface science, biomechanics, experimental biology, and biomimetics. These scientists will find concise and precise models that aid quantitative description of surface phenomena in biology. The chapters of the book illustrate a few examples of contact problems in biology and give numerous examples of applications in contact mechanics to these kinds of problems (p. 25, p. 39, p. 48, etc.). Anyone who is doing research on biological contact problems or those who are particularly interested in the friction/adhesion phenomena in biology will find this book an excellent reference for its quantitative approach to these types of problems. Since the book provides worked solutions at the end of each individual chapter, it might serve as a very good extension to biomechanics courses."

"In twenty chapters the author investigates the most important aspects of contact mechanics, including adhesion and capillarity, the theory of friction on a macroscale ... . This book also offers an overview of methods of numerical simulation for contact mechanics and friction. ... Many special cases are presented alongside the general formulations with this goal in mind. These cases are presented as exercises in the corresponding chapters. The solutions are provided for every exercise, along with a short explanation and results." (Nicolae Pop, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1193, 2010)
