The Eighth European Conference and Exhibition on “Lubrication Maintenance and Tribotechnology” (LUBMAT 2023) will offer an academic / industry interface to discuss lubrication, maintenance and tribotechnology.
Contributors are invited to submit papers in engineering applications related to lubrication, maintenance and tribotechnology.
Abstracts for papers are invited on topics related to lubrication, maintenance and tribotechnology. All accepted papers will be published in meeting proceedings and selected papers will appear in the journal “Lubricants”. Abstracts should be sumitted by 15th March 2023.
Themes There are six major themes for the conference…
| LUBRICATION | TRIBOTECNOLOGY | LUBRICANTS AND ADDITIVES | CONDITION MONITORING / PROGNOSTICS AND HEALTH MONITORING | MAINTENANCE | SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS |
