Underwater Technology Podcast - Pod5 - Tony Globe on Tribology - dealing with wear, lubrication & friction in subsea engineering

Uploaded for 13/5/2020 - In episode 5 of the Underwater Technology Podcast, Tony Globe talks about his lifetime in the field of tribology - the science & engineering of interacting surfaces in relative motion. In the subsea engineering world, that means lubrication, friction & wear of systems such as valves, connectors and other components of seabed-based systems that may have to work with minimal or zero maintenance for many years. Tony talks about the choice of lubricating fluids de...
