Mechanics of coatings: proceedings of the 16th Leeds-Lyon Symposium on Tribology, held at the Institut national des sciences appliquees, Lyon, France, 5th-8th September 1989

Mechanics of Coatings was chosen as the topic for the 16th Leeds-Lyon Symposium, as it was decided to be a timely opportunity to bring together experts of many disciplines connected with coatings to find ways of extending the industrial use of these coatings particularly in the field of tribology. The volume contains 51 papers divided into 20 sessions.
