Wind Energy Tribology at the 2010 International Joint Tribology Conference (IJTC)
The use of wind turbines has grown exponentially in the last few years, and this growth has been accompanied by problems relevant to tribologists. The IJTC will offer two sessions for Wind Energy: Mechanical System Reliability of Wind Turbine Gear Boxes and Wind Turbine Lubrication. This event helps participants expand international cooperation, understanding and promotion of the efforts and disciplines in the area of Wind Energy Tribology. Join us at the 2010 IJTC in beautiful San Francisco California during October 18-20, 2010 to learn more about Wind Energy Tribology.
