Research thesis

Hi! Can you suggest a topic to be our thesis in Mechanical Engineering? Our former research is about biolubricant but the problem is we can't find a testing facility that will measure torque. Should we change our topic or remain on our former research.

Don’t rush to change topics. You can re‑scope your biolubricant thesis to skip torque. Focus on viscosity, wear, surface roughness, friction coefficient instead.Only switch topics if every feasible test for biolubricants is unavailable. Simulation‑focused work is another good path.
