5. Examples of how the PA law can be applied to process and procedure modeling

Knowing the wear rate k of a part under given tribological conditions, either by measurement or by estimation using a model, enables us to draw a number of interesting conclusions about the operation of the tribological system. As far back as 1927, after stating the law (16) , Preston drew some very interesting conclusions about the operation of glass polishing machines . In his article
