Open PhD position! Scaling Friction from Single Grain to Aggregate Grain (Fault-Gouge) Contacts Along with natural gas extraction, the subsurface of the earth is getting more and more important in the current period of energy […]
The push toward low powered, energy-saving devices has been a direction the electronics industry has always pursued. The switch to low powered LED lighting is a good example of this trend. Another avenue is the […]
According to the World Bank, agricultural development is a dominant tool to come out of extreme poverty. A country’s economic growth is also influenced by agriculture: in 2018, it accounted for 4 percent of global […]
What is Tribology: Video Explanation According to Sciencedirect, tribology is a science that studies the friction and wear of machine components and mechanisms. The results of the scientific activity of tribologists relate to the phenomena […]
By Dr. Ameneh Schneider – Optimol Instruments GmbH and Dr. Mathias Woydt – MATRILUB Introduction Interest in special coatings and thin films for tribological applications increased rapidly in the last few decades, especially driven by […]
‘Water’ being an abundant natural resource, can certainly be considered as a primary fluid in lubrication. As of now, most of the lubricants are petroleum-based because of their superior functionality compared to water-based lubricants(WBLs). Global […]
What is the link between a grain silo, a nylon sleeping bag and a flying helicopter? They can all accumulate triboelectric charges! The charges accumulate because the materials in relative motion are insulating materials (respectively […]
Grease definition The word grease is derived from an old French word “Graisse” meaning thick or fat. A grease is a solid to semi-solid product of suspension of thickener into a liquid lubricant. Grease composition […]
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 […]
