Tribology and Design 2010 is the 3rd International Conference in the series which originated with two meetings held at Bournemouth University, UK in 2005 and 2007. The main objective of these meetings is to provide a forum for discussion among scientists, academics and professionals working in different aspects of tribology.

The Tribology and Design Conference explores the role of technology and design in the broader sense. It aims to bring together colleagues from different disciplines interested in problems of surface interaction and design. The range of applications covers from geomechanics to nano problems and from sustainability issues to advanced materials.

СОПРЕДСЕДАТЕЛИ ПРОГРАММНОГО КОМИТЕТА И ОРГКОМИТЕТА:

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the ASIATRIB 2010 Organizing Committee and the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers, I have a great pleasure to invite you to participate in the International Tribology Congress, ASIATRIB 2010, that will take place in Perth, Australia, in December 2010. ASIATRIB is a significant tribological event in this part of the world. It would bring together the tribologists from across the world to share their experiences and recent findings.

An interesting program is being prepared with invited keynote addresses on selected topics reviewing recent advances in tribology and sessions on various research and practical tribological aspects.

All information about the Congress, i.e. registration details, abstract submission, accommodation, etc., can be found on ASIATRIB 2010 website:

http://www.tribology.mech.uwa.edu.au/asiatrib

Both the registration and the abstract submission are already open. Just go to ASIATRIB website and follow the instructions for authors.

Perth, perhaps the most isolated capital city on this planet, is a great place to visit and relax. Whether your interests are cultural, sport oriented, culinary or you simply wish to enjoy a quiet day on the beach Perth is the place to visit. We hope that ASIATRIB 2010 will leave those who attend with long lasting memories.

If you are planning to attend, bring your family and stay a little bit longer to enjoy our beautiful city, pristine beaches, unspoiled nature, wineries and food.

I look forward to welcoming you in Perth in December 2010.

Professor Gwidon Stachowiak
  Chairman ASIATRIB 2010
