Tribology, Friction, Wear, Solid Lubrication, Raman Spectroscopy
France

Biography

Karl Delbé is a senior lecturer at the National School of Engineers at Tarbes (France).
In 2006, he took a PhD in the contribution to understanding intrinsic tribological properties of lamellar compounds. 
In 2009, he was appointed at Laboratoire Génie de Production (LGP) at Tarbes. His research is in experimental tribology and concerns the analysis of interfacial dynamic processes, mainly in non-lubricated friction, specifically with Raman spectroscopy. 
In 2021, he defended his habilitation of Research Management ‘for a thermodynamic approach of tribology’.
