Tribology of abrasive machining processes

"This book uses the fundamental science of tribology as a tool to study abrasive machining processes. Understanding the tribological principles of abrasive processes is crucial to improving the efficiency, accuracy, production rate, and surface quality of products spanning all industries, from machine parts and ball bearings to contact lenses and semiconductor processes such as chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) and silicon water dicing."--BOOK JACKET.
