Contact problems in mechanical systems remain the most important aspect of engineering and applied sciences in our modern world. With the recent advancement of nano and macro mechanics, new and interesting phenomena have been observed even though it is clear that many possibilities abound in this field. This paper presents the mathematical modeling of the wear process of the nanosurface of the sliding bearing of piston machines made with self lubricating materials employing elements of nanomechanics. The differential equation governing this process was established and solved using the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM). Using the ADM, an approximate analytic expression for the velocity of the wear process and most importantly the intensity of the wear process were deduced in this paper. The expression for the intensity of the wear process of the nanosurface of the sliding bearings of piston machines made with self lubricating materials given in this work enables one to determine the durability of the sliding bearings.
