水润滑机械轴承

该项目致力于开发能够在不同润滑条件下运行的高速混合轴承技术，以减少摩擦、磨损及故障。该项目整合了磨损检测、可生物降解润滑剂以及人工智能驱动的监测技术，旨在在航空航天、能源及先进制造等领域实现高效且可持续的应用。

About the project This project will develop high-speed hybrid bearing technologies capable of operating under lubricated, starved and boundary lubrication conditions, where friction, wear and failure risks are greatest. The project is a collaboration between TriboAI Ltd , a University of Southampton spin-out developing next-generation sensing and AI technologies for tribological systems, and City St George’s University of London Compressor Centre. The project will develop high-speed hybrid bearing technologies capable of operating under lubricated, starved and boundary lubrication conditions, where friction, wear and failure risks are greatest. Research will combine real-time wear sensing, biodegradable lubricant additives, advanced low-friction coatings, and AI-driven condition monitoring to deliver more efficient, reliable and sustainable machines for applications such as aerospace, energy and advanced manufacturing. You'll work at the interface of tribology, materials, sensing and data science, helping to create bearing systems with ultra-low friction, enhanced durability and predictive maintenance capability. The School of Engineering is committed to promoting equality, diversity inclusivity as demonstrated by our Athena SWAN award. We welcome all applicants regardless of their gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation or age, and will give full consideration to applicants seeking flexible working patterns and those who have taken a career break. The University has a generous maternity policy, onsite childcare facilities, and offers a range of benefits to help ensure employees’ well-being and work-life balance. The University of Southampton is committed to sustainability and has been awarded the Platinum EcoAward.
