Felix Pfister joined the research group for machine elements and tribology as a research assistant at the beginning of May. Previously, he studied mechanical engineering, specializing in computer-aided product development, at the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. As part of his s...

Geometric deviations in technical products are unavoidable due to process fluctuations in manufacturing and assembly processes. Geometric deviations also occur in rolling bearings, which can negatively influence the functional properties of a rolling bearing (e.g. friction or acoustics). To date, th...

In times of climate change, education for sustainable development (ESD) plays a central role in student education. We are therefore delighted to be playing a leading role in the new lecture series "(FA)U for Sustainability". The cross-faculty lecture deals with topics such as health and resource use...
