Our faculty and students address the critical problems of surface failure that affects key components in advanced engines, manufacturing equipment and processes, bearings, batteries, and biomechanical ...

We are developing unique ultrasonic sensor technology to measure, in the field, loading and lubrication in wind turbine bearings. We use our experience of machine element tribology to diagnose ...

The selection of the best lubricant and understanding the mechanism by which it acts to separate surfaces in a bearing or other machine componment is a major area for study in tribology. The design of ...

Generalized Reynolds equation; thermal, turbulent, inertia, fluid compressibility, and surface roughness effects on sliding bearings; fatigue ... and Material Sciences. Advanced Tribology is a ...
