Three publications from Part C which strongly influenced the development of the field of lubrication in human joints are revisited and their impact on the field is outlined. Furthermore, the impact of the Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science on the field of lubrication and wear in living and artificial human joints is analysed. ‘Analysis of “boosted lubrication” in human joints’ by Duncan Dowson, Anthony Unsworth, and Verna Wright appeared in 1970, ‘The lubrication of porous elastic solids with reference to the functioning of human joints’ by Gordon R. Higginson and Roger Norman was published in 1974, and ‘Engineering at the interface’ by Duncan Dowson addressed the audience in 1992.

The intellectual content and social activity of engineering product development are a constant source of surprise, excitement, and challenge for engineers. When our students experience product-based-learning (PBL), they experience this excitement (Brereton et al., 1995). They also have fun and perform beyond the limits required for simple grades. We, their teachers, experience these things too. Why, then, are so few students and faculty getting the PBL message? How, then, can we put the excitement back in engineering education? In part, we think this is because of three persistent mistakes in engineering education:1. We focus on individual students.2. We focus on engineering analysis versus communication between engineers.3. We fail to integrate thinking skills in engineering science and engineering practice.

Resilience as a concept has found its way into different disciplines to describe the ability of an individual or system to withstand and adapt to changes in its environment. In this paper, we provide an overview of the concept in different communities and extend it to the area of mechanical engineering. Furthermore, we present metrics to measure resilience in technical systems and illustrate them by applying them to load-carrying structures. By giving application examples from the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 805, we show how the concept of resilience can be used to control uncertainty during different stages of product life.
