1. A Surface Engineering Approach to Reduction of Frictional Losses of Heavy Duty Diesel Engines
Abstract : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The aim of the work is to decrease the fuel consumption by decreasing frictional losses of the Power Cylinder Unit.Full scale testing of engine components improvements is time-consuming and costly.

2. Surface Engineering Approach to Frictional Optimization
Abstract : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The power cylinder system is a main contributor to emissions and accounts for about 50% of the total frictional losses found in the engine, so is important to optimize. READ MORE

3. Particle emissions from car brakes : The influence of contact conditions on the pad-to-rotor interface
Abstract : Due to their adverse health effects emissions have been regulated for over three decades. Brake wear particulate matter is the most important non-exhaust source, however current knowledge is mainly limited to observational studies. READ MORE

4. On the Multi-Scale Nature of Ski-Snow Friction : Field Testing, Characterisation and Modelling of Cross-Country Ski Performance
Abstract : The goal of most endurance sports is to get from point A to B in the shortest time possible. Throughout the course, athletes need to overcome the resistive forces that are present in their specific sport. READ MORE

5. Tribology of hydraulic motor
Abstract : A radial piston hydraulic motor has several components involving sliding or rolling interfaces which may encounter tribological problems. Seizure is one of them and it results in complete stoppage of motion between the relatively moving components and has serious consequences in terms of the operation of a hydraulic motor. READ MORE
