Tribology is the essential science of all interacting surfaces in relative motion and affects our lives in many direct ways.

Tribology: FD156 will focus on advanced computational and experimental tribology, providing a forum for chemists, physicists, theoreticians, engineers and biomedical researchers within these themes:

  • Future lubricated systems 
  • Smart tribological surfaces 
  • Predictive modelling 
  • Biotribology       

Confirmed invited speakers:

  • Professor Duncan Dowson (Introductory) – University of Leeds, UK
  • Professor Nicholas Spencer (Closing) – ETH Zürich, Switzerland
  • Professor Jean-Michel Martin – Ecole Centrale De Lyon, France
  • Dr Ian Taylor – Shell Global Solutions, UK
  • Professor Jacob Klein – Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel
  • Dr Liliane Léger – NRS & Université Paris-Sud 11, France
  • Professor Pwt Evans – Cardiff University, UK
  • Professor Roland Larsson – Luleå University of Technology, Sweden
  • Professor John Fisher – University of Leeds, UK
  • Professor Greg Sawyer – University of Florida, USA

Faraday Discussions are a long-established series of meetings which provide a unique international platform for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The Discussion is a dynamic forum for developing and exchanging exciting new ideas, and both the papers and discussion will be published in a final printed volume.

We invite you to submit an abstract for an oral presentation by 3 June 2011. We do hope that this conference is of interest to you and that you will attend this exciting Faraday Discussion next year.
