This Symposium wants to bring together tribologists from different disciplines such as physics, chemistry, and materials science in order to further develop the molecular picture of tribological processes and to contribute to the development of materials and methods for friction reduction, wear protection, and lubrication.
The number of participants is limited to around 60 including 20 invited speakers and up to 20 poster presentations. The program is designed specifically to allow sufficient time for discussions and a stimulating exchange of thoughts and ideas.
The scientific program will start on Tuesday, 2 October at 9 am and ends on Thursday, 4 October at late afternoon with Monday and Friday as travelling days.
