This international journal is dedicated to the rapid publication of high
quality papers on the important subjects of wear and friction, together with
papers on closely related aspects of lubrication, contact phenomena or
surface characterization. The scope includes all aspects of physics,
chemistry, materials science and mechanical engineering which relate
directly to the subjects of wear and friction; papers may approach the
subject from a fundamental or technological viewpoint.
Thorough refereeing of all papers, in accordance with normal procedures for
international journals in science and engineering, ensures that Wear is an
international forum of high quality for multidisciplinary communications on
topics which include:  the fundamental understanding of wear and frictional
phenomena, including nanometre and atomic scale aspects of tribology;
interactions between chemical processes (e.g. corrosion) and wear, and
chemical aspects of lubrication (e.g. boundary lubrication);  design and
materials selection for the control of wear and friction;  tribology of
natural biological and artificial implanted materials;  contact phenomena in
the context of friction and wear;  new materials and their tribological
behaviour;  wear and friction in cutting and forming processes;  lubricants
and mechanisms of lubrication in the context of wear and friction control;
topics in surface physics and chemistry related to wear and friction.
Papers concerned with these fields may be submitted. Facilities also exist
for the prompt publication of short Research Reports and Letters subject to
editorial approval.
