Tribology is defined as the science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion, which involves friction, wear and lubrication.
The term “tribology” was introduced in the 1960s by Prof. Peter Jost. In the consequent decades, various aspects of interacting surfaces in relative motion have been the focus of tribology, including, for example, the tribology of automotive applications, microelectromechanical systems, magnetic storage devices, adhesive contact, micro/nanotribology, biotribology.
