Conferences

The first European Conference on Tribology – ECOTRIB was held in Ljubljana in 2007. After 10 years, this conference series is now making its first return to Slovenia. ECOTRIB is organised on a biennial basis by the tribology societies of four countries: Austria, Italy, Slovenia and Switzerland. ECOTRIB 2017 will be the sixth consecutive event, probably making it eligible for the status of well “established and traditional” European conference.

ECOTRIB is devoted to a continuous update of the cutting edge of tribology research in Europe and world-wide, reviewing the most advanced developments and research beyond the state of the art in traditional and more modern areas that continue to expand rapidly, such as nano-, bio-, and green-tribology as well as interface phenomena. Moreover, at ECOTRIB we can assess the progress of research groups, young scientists and last, but certainly not least, industry, its development activities, and trends in application-oriented research.

Within ECOTRIB 2017 conference several most respected and world-renowned scientists will give keynote and invited lectures and participants will have an opportunity to publish their work in a special issue of one of the three relevant tribology journals (Wear, Tribology International and Lubrication Science). In addition, financial prizes and plaques will be awarded to the best student papers/presentations, as judged by the Awards Committee.
