 Dr. Dmitri Kopeliovich 
 
 Wear is the removal of the material from the surface of a solid body as a result of mechanical action of the counterbody.
 
 Wear of Engine bearings is the removal of the bearing material from its surface caused by sliding friction between the bearing and the crankshaft.
 
 Wear may combine effects of various physical and chemical processes proceeding during the friction between two counteracting materials: micro-cutting, micro-ploughi…</description>
