The IET Tribology Network’s flagship event, Challenges in Tribology, is being held for the second time in March 2017.

 
This event is set up to share knowledge with people in industry who can apply it to improve competitiveness and sustainability, and to foster valuable dialogue between industry and academia within the UK.

 
The inaugural 2016 event, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Jost Report, brought together 100 people with a passion for Tribology.

 
This year’s event has been developed to build on that success. Again, the organisers have been successful in attracting an array of leading speakers from the UK and internationally. It will run over two days, each with a defined theme:
Thursday 16th March: Challenges in Transport
Friday 17th March: Materials and coatings for extreme environments

 
Depending on time and interests, people can choose to register for one or both days. The attached posters provide more information on topics and speakers. Again, this event is free of charge to attend and registration is open at the link below.
