Tribology, the science of friction, wear, and lubrication, is the unsung hero behind the function of countless devices we use to hold things together or secure them. From the thousands of tiny hooks and loops that make up Velcro to the teeth and locking mechanism of a zip tie, and the knots in shoelaces or the mechanics of snaps, these seemingly simple devices rely fundamentall...

Friction Unveiled: A Tribological Deep Dive Part II
Send us a text Join us for the second session of our hit friction podcast, where we delve into the intricate world of friction at the surface, exploring suggested mechanisms like the foundational adhesion theory by Bowden and Tabor and its historical roots at the Cambridge Cavendish Laboratory, while also discovering how our hosts, Vern and Marc, began their journeys in tribology. This episode tackles boundary friction and techniques for controlling friction at the surface, highlighting the c...
