期刊介绍
Friction is a single-blind peer-reviewed open access journal for the publication of theoretical and experimental research works related to the friction, lubrication and wear. Friction is an open access journal. It is published monthly by Tsinghua University Press and Springer, and sponsored by the State Key Laboratory of Tribology (Tsinghua University) and the Tribology Institute of Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society.
