The Master’s Program at UTFPR Aims to Evaluate the Flow of Lubricating Greases and Friction Modifiers at the Wheel-Rail Interface

If you have a background in Mechanical Engineering and are passionate about experimental activities, then this is the perfect opportunity for you. The Analysis and Simulation of Components Laboratory (LASC) at the Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR) is partnering with the renowned company MRS Logística S.A. and the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) to offer a unique master’s opportunity.

The main objective of this master’s program at UTFPR is to evaluate the flow of lubricating greases and friction modifiers at the wheel-rail interface, a crucial aspect for improving the performance and efficiency of this fundamental interaction in railway systems. Participants will receive a scholarship of R$ 2,100 for 24 months.

Comprehensive Activities Included in the Master’s Program at UTFPR

By applying for the master’s opportunity at UTFPR, you will have the chance to engage in exciting and challenging activities. Your role will include an in-depth study of the boundary lubrication of greases and friction modifiers, essential for understanding the processes occurring at the wheel-rail interface.

Additionally, you will participate in the development of tests that evaluate the formation and durability of tribofilms, thin layers that play a critical role in reducing friction and wear in this interaction. Surface characterization is also part of the activities, allowing for a deep understanding of the properties involved. You will also have the opportunity to correlate the formulations of these materials with their properties and tribological behavior.

Context and Importance of the Study

The operation of the wheel-rail interface is highly complex, occurring under boundary lubrication conditions. In this regime, thin films resulting from physicochemical reactions between the lubricant and the surfaces play a crucial role in controlling friction and wear. Understanding the formation and behavior of these films is extremely important for optimizing lubrication performance at this interface. The success of this study could have a significant impact on the efficiency of railway systems, contributing to a smoother, more economical, and environmentally friendly operation.

How to Participate in the Master’s Program

If you meet the requirements and are eager to engage in innovative research in the field of mechanical engineering, this is your opportunity. Apply for the selection process for the master’s and doctoral program by sending your CV to toousseau@utfpredu.br/pintaude@utfpr.edu.br by 21/08/2023. Be ready to start your activities in September 2023 and dive into an exciting journey of discovery and advancement in the field of tribology and mechanical engineering.
