Doctorate Programs – PhD

 

1. The Laboratory for Surface Technology and Tribology, University of Twente, Enscehde, The Netherlands. The laboratory focuses on phenomena that occur in the contact between surfaces. Friction, lubrication and wear are examples of such phenomena. Using surface treatments and coatings, these tribological aspects of contacts can be controlled. The subjects Surface Technology and Tribology are closely linked in our research projects and the courses we teach.
