A new breakthrough in lubricant formulation with special focus on use of lubricants which are developed for applications in confined spaces and requirements of low lubricant quantities. These lubricants are composed of non-magnetic solid particles […]
It is estimated that about 30% of world’s primary energy is consumed by excessive friction every year and about 60% of machines fail or stop for maintenance due to frictional damage. Above that, 50% of […]
Ever-growing customer demands lead to tougher material requirements. New high-performing materials and surface treatments become available every week with properties which were thought impossible. However, replacing the material of a machine component comes at a […]
Graphite is a widely used material in automotive and manufacturing industries. Because of its frictional resistance, good mechanical behavior and high temperature, It is used in applications like mechanical seals more specifically in gas face […]
‘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 […]
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 […]
It all started with a shaky washing machine. Pedro Reis, head of the Flexible Structures Laboratory at EPFL’s School of Engineering, rolled up a piece of fabric and placed it under the machine to stop […]
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 […]
As humans, we interact with the environment via our senses (sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch). Touch perception has been in the attention of scientist for decades, with applications in the textile, robotics, or sports […]
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 […]
