Tribological Design of Machine Elements: Proceedings of the 15th Leeds-Lyon Symposium on Tribology Held at Bodington Hall, the University of Leeds, (Tribology Series)

On previous occasions each Symposium has focused attention on a current and significant research topic, usually reflecting the interests of the Leeds or Lyon research groups, however this time the main focus was on the vitally important subject of technology transfer, providing the 154 delegates from 21 countries with the rare opportunity to discuss the impact of their studies on machine design.
