Tomas Polcar is a Professor of Materials Science and Tribology at the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, University of 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏,. His research covers large area of surface engineering, particularly design, deposition and characterisation of thin films, radiation damage, nanoscale mechanical properties and interface phenomena. He pioneers novel self-lubricant coatings with self-adaptive nanostructure and high temperature tribology of thin films.
Tomas has extensive funding track record from bodies in the Czech Republic (GAAV,GACR, MPO), Portugal (FCT), UK (TSB, EPSRC, DSTL, Innovate UK). He was successful with European bids (FP7: Radinterfaces; HardAlt; AgriSenSact, mERA Net (Lubricoat - coordinator), and H2020 (MSCA ITN Solution - coordinator, FET OPEN Icarus). His total funding portfolio is over ?10m and he has number of industrial collaborators.
