Features: This book focuses on the friction, adhesion, and lubrication of biological systems, based on the rheological properties of biological materials. It elaborates on the correlation between friction behavior and its relationship with biological characteristics such as structure and material. Additionally, it introduces the fundamental principles and knowledge of micro/nano tribology, with a particular emphasis on studying biological friction systems from the perspectives of friction and adhesion. The book dedicates considerable space to systematically introducing related experimental equipment, testing and sample preparation techniques, and research examples. It cites a large number of references, making it highly informative and applicable. This book holds significant reference value for researchers in tribology, biomimetic materials technology, and micro-robotics and micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). It can also serve as a reference textbook for university and graduate students.
