This month’s theme is sustainable energy and today we’re looking at green tribology research at the University.
Improving the efficiency of wind turbines and other machinery, in order to minimise negative impact on the environment, is a key focus for engineers here at Southampton.
Professor Ling Wang and her team at the national Centre for Advanced Tribology at Southampton (nCATS), are carrying out research that tackles global environmental issues such as reducing waste and improving equipment lifespans.
This story is one of many on the University’s Research highlights page, all of which demonstrate how work that goes on right here at Southampton is impacting and improving the world around us.
