Tribology Development in Russia and Belarus
Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2009, Vol 31, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents a brief overview of the achievements of the Russian and Soviet tribology schools. The contribution of the Soviet tribology leader Prof. Kragelskii into the science of friction, wear, and lubrication is discussed. The basic results of tribologists from the main research centers in Russia are considered. The development of tribology in Belarus is outlined with particular attention to the studies carried out at the Metal-Polymer Research Institute of National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. Some new achievements in friction contact mechanics are reported and new instruments for studying surface forces in friction contact and tribotesting at microscale are described. A new instrument for tribodiagnostics – in-line optomagnetic detector is presented.
