Nano-engineered Green lubrication technology for sustainable high-performance stamping (2018 - 2021)
The GreenSTAMP project is about designing novel, green, high-performance, boundary-film contacts for stamping that satisfy technological and increasingly strict legislative requirements that will reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. This is a critical requirement for stamping and other heavy-loaded lubricated mechanical components ...
To tailor film thickness and friction in oil lubricated contacts by solid-liquid interactions (2018 - 2020)
Lubricated contacts are of great importance for many mechanical systems and often a key component that facilitate smooth operation. In these contacts it is desired that lubricating oil forms enough thick lubricating film that prevents direct contacts between both contact surfaces and thus enable low or no-wear ...
Green high-performance and low-friction interfaces tailored by the reactivity of novel DLC coatings and ionic liquids (2017 - 2020)
The GreenCOAT project is about designing green, DLC-coated interface based on an innovative HiPIMS DLC-deposition technology that can be tailored to operate with ionic liquids, a harmless form of lubrication that will comply with tough new restrictions relating to greenhouse-gas ...
Enhanced wear protection using nanostructured materials and nanoparticles (2015 - 2020)
Two main constituents of tribology are friction and wear, the control and reduction of both parameters are critical for proper functionality of machine elements.
E-maintenance of electro-mechanical drives: prognostics and health management solutions under non-stationary operating conditions (EMAINT) (2016 - 2019)
Rotational machines and drives represent the most ubiquitous item of equipment present in almost all branches of industry, power engineering and transport. As such they contribute significantly to the maintenance costs which still represent sizeable share ...
Nanoscale engineering of the contact interfaces for green lubrication technology (2016 - 2018)
The project focuses on design of novel and innovative high-performance green boundary film contacts that satisfy strict requirements on greenhouse emissions and hazardous materials, indispensably required in all future heavy loaded lubricated mechanical components.
