Tribometrology in Tribocorrosion
- Robert Wood (nCATS, University of Southampton)
Tribometry involves numerous testing configurations in which parameters such as geometry, pressure, speed, and temperature are modified to replicate real tribological conditions as closely as possible. Although the outcomes are often difficult to predict, tribological testing methods are well established. Similarly, corrosion testing setups combined with instrumentation for electrochemical...
Pressurized gas environments are critical in industries such as aerospace, energy, and manufacturing, where the behavior of materials and lubricants under high-pressure conditions can significantly influence system efficiency, safety, and durability. However, traditional tribological testing methods often fail to replicate the complex conditions encountered in these environments. To address...
