Despite recent advances and great scientific knowledge gained on the bulk mechanical properties and behaviour of advanced engineering materials, their surface properties, such as friction and wear still remain as the main limiting factors for the performance, efficiency, reliability and environmental compatibility in a myriad of industrial applications ranging in size from nano-to macro-scales and involving literally no-contact to severe contact situations as well as extreme temperatures, pressures, and harsh environments.
Computer simulations and in-situ real time experiments performed to exploit forces and dissipative mechanisms at the atomic scale where friction and wear have their roots, coupled with multiscale simulation and modelling at atomistic, mesoscale, and continuum range may be the key to the design and development of new tribological materials that can ultimately meet increasingly more stringent operating conditions of future tribological systems that are expected to provide much higher performance, efficiency, and durability than before.
This Symposium aims to provide a comprehensive update on the progress made in recent years in the fundamental aspects and mechanistic understanding of friction and wear at the micro- and nano-scales. It is hoped that such an in-depth understanding can be used to increase performance, efficiency, and reliability of future materials in a large variety of tribological applications i.e., from NEMS/MEMS to meso-scale mechanical and energy conversion and utilization systems, from manufacturing and biomedical applications to advanced transportation and aerospace systems. Materials covered include coatings and bulk forms of oxide and non-oxide ceramics, including carbides, borides, nitrides, fluorides and sulphides. Recent advances in protective ceramic thin films and thick coatings, metal-ceramic and polymer-ceramic based multifunctional composites and nanocomposites, as well as fullerenes, graphene, diamond, DLCs and other carbon-based materials, coatings, and composites are also emphasized. Surface nano-texturing or -structuring by high energy beams (ion beams, plasmas, lasers, etc.) and latest solid lubrication approaches for improved tribological performance under extreme conditions and environments will be important topics of this symposium. Modelling and simulation of materials and tribological systems across the different orders of time and length scales are also emphasized.
