Lubrication between two surfaces depends on their respective co-efficient of frictions, surface finishes and also the type of lubricant used, if there is any. It is known that the temperature at which these surfaces are […]
Electric vehicle technology has been considered as one of the most important upcoming technologies in the present world. There is most definitely a crucial reason for this consideration and this is not solely relying on […]
Tribology is a term used to define combination of friction, wear and lubrication. Tribology has been used in various fields to improve reliability and longevity of systems. Sports engineering applies engineering disciplines like mathematics, […]
Electric vehicles are arguably one of the most important inventions of our times. Aiming to lower carbon emissions and to reduce additional harmful effects on our environment, these machines are designed with innovation and precision […]
Today, my youngest daughter dropped her spoon again on the floor. She didn’t do it on purpose. But I still had to get it back again, give it a quick wash again and give it […]
By living through a global pandemic for over a year now, we are in a no better position to understand the impact of natural disasters and its effects upon us as a human race than […]
Introduction Dry friction between two bodies under relative movement is crucial in some technical fields. The most common application areas are certainly the various braking systems of vehicles, as well as the clutches in vehicles […]
Electricity is considered as a basic necessity for humans just like food, water and shelter. Ironically, if we think about it we need electricity to make food, water and shelter nowadays. In its early days, […]
The holy grail of tribologists studying lubricated systems is often to predict the contact lifespan. For this purpose, you can compute the minimum film thickness separating the two bodies… but only if you make the […]
After years of research, problem solving and brain storming the fact that a fellow researcher found your work helpful in his own research is so fulfilling. This makes citing one of the most important factors […]
