Tribological design-The spacecraft industry
1989Modern spacecraft abound with mechanisms where relative movement between contacting surfaces occurs. Abnormal performance of such mechanisms, arising from high friction or unexpected wear, can rapidly lead to loss of mechanism function; for critical items this can lead to the complete failure of the spacecraft mission.

Industrial tribology in India— a visitor's view
Tribology International, 1979In studies of attitudes and commitment to various aspects of technology, it has not been uncommon to take the number of contributions to the technological literature as one of the criteria. On this basis there can be few doubts about Indian commitment to advancing tribological understanding although, as elsewhere, the majority of the contributions come
