报告摘要：Wolfgang Pauli said that surfaces have to be the work of evil due to their complexity and challenges in understanding their underlying properties. Study of surfaces is even more challenging in the context of tribology, which is the science and technology of interacting surfaces in relative motion. Tribology is an exciting and highly interdisciplinary field, linked with engineering, physics, chemistry, materials science, mathematics and biology. It encompasses the study and application of friction, wear, lubrication and related surface design aspects.
During this lecture, Professor Tomasz Liskiewicz will explain the impact of tribology on global economy, and relate to the first systematic study of friction by Leonardo da Vinci. Tomasz will present several examples of his tribological research related to the fundamental understanding of fretting wear phenomenon. He will explain how surface engineering plays a key role in enabling future tribological technologies by providing smart functional surfaces with advanced properties. Finally, he will present the future trends of tribology and surface engineering in the context of the fourth industrial revolution.
