Under certain conditions, friction can lead to the formation of new structures at the interface, including in situ tribofilms and various patterns, which can reduce friction and wear. This book presents a fresh perspective on friction and tribology by combining mechanical and thermodynamic approaches. The authors show how friction-induced instabilities and vibrations can lead to self-organized structures. They also explore how understanding the structure-property relationships that lead to self-organization can help engineers design "smart" biomimetic materials that are self-lubricating and self-healing.
