Tribology Seasons 2024/2025

20.01.2025 till 20.01.2025 | EPFL (Lausanne), Room MXF-312

Tribology is the science and engineering of interacting surfaces in relative motion. Tribology is a key factor to successfully address new challenges related to the durability, performance, efficiency and sustainability of a number of strategic applications. Especially relevant for Switzerland, is the demand for more efficient micro/nano systems, bio-engineering interfaces and in the related manufacturing processes.

The sessions consist of an introduction of the speaker, her/his presentation and an open discussion with the participants. Due to the limited number of participants of 25 persons, please, confirm your assistance by sending an email to: Anna.igualmunoz@nullepfl.ch
