Show Notes

If you've watched this channel before, you'll understand that I'm passionate about lubrication technologies and believe that they deserve a much more prominent role in conversations about sustainability and machine reliability. This channel is my contribution to putting in the spotlight, but Prof. Ashlie Martini of UC Merced has also been tackling this unique challenge. In this conversation we talk a bit about new technologies, how to make tribology more exciting to undergraduate students, lubricant for space and EVs, and a whole lot more.
