Introduction We live in an era of big data. Major corporations around the world are competing to collect data about their customers to provide better services to them and stay on top of the pyramid. […]
INTRODUCTION Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have the potential to drive the future of electricity generation and nanotechnology. We already see studies aiming TENGs with innovation strategies like surface microstructure treatment, multilayer design and additive pump design […]
Introduction Laser cladding is a surface treatment method used to refurbish discs brake rotors, which have wide range of applications in road, rail and aviation. A new surface layer will be added on the regions […]
Nanotechnology has gifted the mankind with particles which are much smaller yet more powerful as they exhibit superior mechanical, electrical, optical properties as compared to the micro particles. It has been reported that the bulk […]
Dear Colleagues: After being postponed due to COVID, the Tribology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) are back! They will both be held this summer at Bates College in Lewiston ME, USA. […]
Corrosion as a phenomenon seems pretty common to us, yet it consume 6.2% GDP of the USA yearly. It is estimated that more than a whooping $270 billion dollars are spent in various ways to […]
The EU funded project i-TRIBOMAT (Grant ID: 814494) launched last month an Open Call for Early Adopters. To promote their brand-new platform “i-TRIBOMAT: the European Tribology Centre”, the i-TRIBOMAT consortium offers their services free-of-charge. […]
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 […]
