About the Author
Raymond G. Bayer has over 40 years of industrial
experience in tribology. From 1958 to the end of 1991 he worked at IBM's
Endicott, NY, site where he held a number of technical and management positions
in several advance technology, materials, and reliability organizations,
retiring as a Senior Engineer. During that that time, his work in tribology
focused on the wear and lubrication of high-speed electromechanical devices
associated with computer peripherals and business machines, as well as the wear
of packaging components used in computer. Since the end of 1991, he has been an
independent consultant, working on tribological problems in applications as
diverse as disk drives, medical equipment, engines, and large agricultural
equipment.
He is the author of two
previous books on engineering approaches to wear design and problem resolution,
as well as over 75 technical papers in this area. He has been the editor or
coeditor of eight ASTM special technical publications on various aspects of
wear and wear testing. He is a Fellow of ASTM and has been a member of ASTM's Wear
and Erosion Committee since the early 19'70s and has served as its Chairman. He
is also a member of the Internal Conference on Wear of Materials and served as
Conference Chairman for the 1989 conference. He currently is proceedings editor
for communications and case study contributions. He has obtained degrees in
physics and applied mathematics from St. John's University and Brown
University, respectively. During his career, he has developed and presented a
number of courses on tribology geared for industry.
