This book details how artificial intelligence and other informatic methods can be applied to the field of tribology. Using problems often found within tribological condition monitoring, behaviour prediction, system optimization and mechanism analysis, the book covers methods used such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Including case studies throughout, the book offers an accessible... Read more
