- The branch of engineering that deals with the interaction of surfaces in relative motion (as in bearings or gears): their design and friction and wear and lubrication
- (tribologist) a specialist in tribology
- (TRIBOLOGICAL) of or relating to friction or frictional build-up due to motion and wear.
- The process of monitoring the condition of equipment through the analysis of properties of its lubricating and other oils. Typically conducted through the measurement of particulates in the oil, or the measurement of the chemical composition of the oil (Spectographic Oil Analysis). ...
- The science of the interactions between surfaces moving relative to each other. Such interactions usually involve the interplay of two primary factors: the load, or force, perpendicular to the surfaces, and the frictional force that impedes movement. ...
- The study of friction.
