review text: This book is a modern view of contact mechanics on the problems arising in tribology. The author is a known Russian mechanician, whose teacher L. A. Galin is one of the founders of modern methods in contact mechanics. The book presents the ideas of Galin and their development in the works of the author and other scientists (mainly Soviet school) concerning tribology. The objective is to study friction and wear for different surfaces and bodies. The monograph includes eight main chapters and a brief conclusion. In the first introductory chapter, the author gives a general formulation of contact interactions of bodies from the viewpoint of mechanics. A good review of the corresponding works is made. The second chapter is devoted to the discrete contact problems taking into account micro- and macrogeometries. At first, the author considers periodic contact problems for systems of indenters of the same height and of different heights on an elastic half-space. An important principle of localization is stated. The author shows a sufficient accuracy of stress-strain calculations in multiple contact problems, taking into account real contact in the contact zone and average characteristics in the remaining area. Then, the problem of nonuniform load distribution between indenters is studied. Specific results are presented for systems of cylindrical and spherical punches. Finally, chapter 2 describes a scheme of calculation of contact characteristics with account of micro- and macro-geometry of contacting bodies. The problems of friction in body contact are studied in the third chapter. At first, some contact problems for elastic bodies in sliding contact are presented in two- and three-dimensional formulations. Then, the study of sliding contact for viscoelastic bodies allows to analyze the dependence between mechanical and adhesive components of the friction force. Finally, the author considers the rolling contact of viscoelastic bodies with partial slip in contact zone. The…
