At TU Wien, the research groups of Prof Carsten Gachot (Tribology, Mechanical Engineering) and Prof Dominik Eder (Chemistry) are therefore working together to develop innovative, improved lubricants.

Surface failure due to rubbing is a critical problem that affects the life and reliability of modern machinery. Introduction to Tribology is an interdisciplinary course for the tribology in design and ...

Usually we don't want the components to wear so they are lubricated. The study of friction, wear, lubrication and contact mechanics are all important parts of tribology. Related aspects are surface ...

We are a centre of excellence in all aspects of aero-engine abradable lining tribology. The team has pioneered a range of in-situ measurement techniques for characterising wear in this high speed – ...

But no one had done a scientific study on the differences in the rosin bags used by pitchers in the two leagues until now, according to Takeshi Yamaguchi, a tribology professor at Tohoku University.
