| The problem of the tribological behaviour of materials had focussed on either improving friction or prioritising less wear and tear. |
| The outcome is a metallic surface of extreme cleanliness with high load bearing capacity, and excellent tribological properties. |
| It is truly inter disciplinary in all its aspects and provides a scientific basis to understand contact and lubrication modes in a given tribological system. |
| Cummins determined that zirconia ceramics solved most of the basic problems generated in this harsh tribological environment. |
| This tribometer evaluates the tribological characteristics of liquid lubricants for space applications. |
| Among various tribological materials, cermets are known for their excellent wear resistance under unlubricated conditions. |
