Abstrak

Tribology, the science, technology, engineering, and friction and wear, is reviewed in terms paper by providing a comprehensive review of the principles of tribology and their critical applications in engineering. The road starts with delving into the historical and conceptual basis of tribology and placing it in the context of a wide range of industrial applications, ranging from automotive to aerospace engineering, and manufacturing to biomedical engineering. The study highlights the critical contribution of tribology to reduce friction and wear of machines, and thus improve the machine reliability, energy efficiency and sustainability through material and surface engineering. It concludes with an emphasis on the interdisciplinary nature of tribology and its central role in technological innovation, machinery performance improvement and in tackling the sustainability challenges in engineering. Finally, future research directions in nanoscale tribological studies and advanced materials development are proposed to further optimize the design and operation of mechanical systems.
