Bearing World 2026!

Bearing World 2026!

The Ocean Tribology Center (OTC) members from KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sergei Glavatskih) and Ghent University (Hamed Eshraghi,Manjunath Manjunath, Florian König) had the opportunity to represent our research at the Bearing World Conference in Dresden, Germany.

The conference brought together experts from academia and industry, providing an excellent platform to exchange knowledge, discuss emerging challenges, and explore the latest advances in bearing technology and tribology.
It was inspiring to engage with researchers, engineers, and industry leaders, reinforcing the value of strong collaboration between academia and industry in driving innovation and addressing real-world engineering challenges.

A big thank you to the organizers and everyone we had the pleasure of meeting. We look forward to building on these connections and continuing the conversation.

Engineering Sustainable Ocean Systems Through Tribological Innovation

Connecting European expertise to develop reliable, energy-efficient solutions for offshore wind, wave energy, and marine technologies.

COST

COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation. www.cost.eu

The main aim of this Ocean Tribology Center (OTC) COST Action is to create a pan-European-wide network of countries with a strong offshore affiliation for promoting collaboration and knowledge-sharing towards the development of sustainable, reliable and energy efficient ocean systems.
