Dr James Ewen: Molecular Simulations Shaping Tribology - Part 1

What if you could predict how a lubricant performs before it’s even made?

Season 2 of Tribology Talks starts with a fresh twist as PCS R&D team members Ben Wainwright and Rory McAllister take over the mic to host an unmissable conversation with Dr James Ewen, Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellow at Imperial College London. James reveals how molecular simulations are transforming tribology, from uncovering nanoscale behaviour to solving real-world challenges in industries as diverse as automotive, energy, and even personal care. Along the way, he shares his journey from Shell to Imperial and why this research is shaping a more sustainable future.
