Biography

Abstract
Some new aspects of nanmechanics and nanotribology with fullerene-like (IF) and nanotubes (INT) of WS2 (MoS2) will be discussed. New experimental work on the mechanical behavior of individual nanoparticles will be presented and discussed. These experiments were established in order to address specific questions, like the mechanical strength of such nanoparticle under compression. In the next series of slides, the mechanical and tribological properties of nanocomposites based on such nanoparticles will be shown and discussed. Finally, the wetting of individual WS2 nanotubes by liquids will be discussed.
