6^th Friction 2024 will focus on the latest developments in materials and coatings for ultra-low friction and wear, which have grown increasingly important with the rise of e-mobility, wind power generation, and the use of new, environmentally friendly lubricants. A deeper understanding of the underlying microscopic mechanisms in the tribological contact is necessary due to these rapid changes in industrial applications.

Topics

• Wear resistant alloys
• Low friction coatings
• Ceramics and ceramic matrix composites
• Polymers and polymer composites
• Additively manufactured Tribosystems
• Material-lubricant interactions

=> It`s a Hybrid Symposium - Oberhof & Online

Abstract Submission:
The organizers invite the Friction community to submit abstracts for lectures, oral-poster, and posters related to the symposium topics. Especially young scientists are encouraged to contribute to the conference.

For the submission of an abstract, no booking is necessary until a contribution is confirmed. 

Submission deadline: 30 October 2023
