Laboratory of Tribology

Research Topics

  • modeling the contact and frictional interaction of rough surfaces at different scale levels;
  • analysis of the influence of surface adhesive interaction on contact characteristics and friction force;
  • development of the lubricated contact theory;
  • modeling the fracture of surface layers of interacting bodies during friction, development of the contact-fatigue wear models;
  • analysis of the influence of material inhomogeneity and coatings on the stress-strain state of interacting bodies and their fracture kinetics;
  • development of the computational methods for contact characteristics and friction forces in various joints;
  • development of the methods of solution for contact and wear problems and prognosis of durability for various joints;
  • application of the contact mechanics methods to the analysis of medical and biological problems;
  • development of experimental methods for studying friction and wear of materials;
  • analysis of friction surfaces by optical, atomic force, and electron microscopy.
