"Tribology in Sustainable Manufacturing compiles the fundamentals of friction in manufacturing processes, and the application of tribology in advanced manufacturing. Covering topics such as 3D printing, green lubrication, laser sintering and industry 4.0, the book promotes cost effective and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. In efforts to reduce energy consumption production time, and costs while simultaneously improving plant productivity, sustainable tribology plays a key role in modern manufacturing processes. With a focus on broadening the application of tribology in sustainable manufacturing, the book integrates cutting edge research from international contributors. It further covers machine learning, micro-machining, friction stir welding and metal forming. It also discusses the tribological properties of advanced materials and coatings, and how to model tribology in manufacturing processes. This book will be of interest to engineers and students in the field of machining, tribology, additive manufacturing, surface engineering and coating"--
