The earth has been faced to serious environmental problems now. Global warming and environmental pollution progresses hour by hour at this moment. How does tribology deal with these problems? How much possible to contribute aiming at the problem solving is greatly asked. Up to now, tribology has worked on honest technological development over many years like reducing the fuel efficiency of the car and improving the energy efficiency of the industrial machine, etc., and up to now, has corresponded promptly to the request in the age of the abolishing the asbestos from the brake and the changing in the fluorocarbon refrigerant , etc. As for tribology, to construct a sustainable society, a direct involvement and a contribution more than before come to be requested strongly. The symposium that assumes environment friendly tribology to be a key word, introduces a present approach, and views the development in the future is held. |

Collaborations of theory and experiments are strongly demanded to develop and design new tribology-materials and tribo-system in both universities and industries. However, the deep understanding of the tribological phenomena are not sufficient in both theory and experiments because the tribology is a complicated multi-physics phenomena including chemical reaction, fluid, heat transfer, exoelectron, as well as a multi-scale phenomena from electronic- and atomic-level to macro-level. Recently, the advancement of various simulation methodologies such as quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, and fluid dynamics are significant and then the theoretical understanding of the tribological phenomena are rapidly promoted. Especially, the recent advancement of theory realizes the large-scale simulation which was previously unimaginable, and then the strong collaboration of simulations and experiments are tried in various ways. Therefore, in this symposium we aim to discuss the future direction and challenges of the large scale simulations on the tribology by the leaders and young researchers in a variety of the simulation fields of tribology. |

Tribology is as old as human culture. But only about 100 years ago it was realized that the phenomena associated with wear and lubrication can be scientifically studied and solved. It was also realized that solid research is required to address the industrial problems associated with moving interfaces in operating machinery. New area of science called 'tribology' has then been created. The early tribological studies were dedicated to solving fundamental problems of lubrication and wear. This early studies are often labelled as 'classical' tribology. Since then tribology has evolved encompassing the new areas such as nano-tribology, bio-tribology, surface studies and many others. In the Asia-Pacific region there is a dynamic growth of both 'classical' and 'advanced' industries. The products range from heavy machinery to advanced electronic systems. The research in both 'classical' and 'modern' tribology in many of the countries in the Asia-Pacific region is dynamic and advanced. In this mini symposium the latest tribology research and new tribological challenges in the Asia-Pacific region will be presented and discussed. |

Whereas over the last decades existing mechanical tolerances have allowed to optimize tribological systems by trial-and-error, nowadays downsizing, weight reduction and new combustion techniques drive the mechanical systems to their limits characterized by increased sensitivity and stochastic fails. Most of the modern mechanical systems possess high power densities that lead to plastic flow and mechano-chemical reactions and intermixing. In that case also the near-surface volume is part of the interaction. As a result, the materials change their physical, mechanical and chemical properties in order to adjust to the power of dissipation and enter the regime of mild or ultra-mild wear. Chemical interactions during this process largely determine the friction and wear behaviour of the newly formed tribomaterial. The proposed symposium therefore is intended to give a multi-disciplinary overview of new approaches in this field.
|
|
|
The proposed symposium should cover presentations on: |
- |
Recent work regarding to mechanisms of mild/ultra-mild transition of wear: |
- |
Running-in and stability in dry and lubricated sliding. |
- |
Effects of tribo-chemical reactions in the ultra-mild wear regime. |
- |
Formation of third bodies and mechanical mixing. |
- |
The role of wear particles and wear particle generation. |
