7th World Tribology Congress

July 10 -15, 2022, Lyon, France

NEW CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
We are pleased to announce the opening of an additional call for abstract for WTC 2022. This will provide an opportunity for tribologists who have not done so to submit their research for oral or poster presentation.

There is no need for authors who have confirmed an oral or poster presentation at WTC 2022 to submit a new abstract to present an updated version of their work. Abstracts already accepted for WTC 2021 and confirmed for WTC 2022 are still considered for the final program.

We are therefore looking forward to the submission of new contributions. We remind that the conference will be organized around ten scientific themes and a partner event.

Any new contribution will be welcome from October 15 to November 15, 2021 on the submission platform and will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee. Acceptance will be notified by e-mail by end of 2021 at the latest. Selected papers will have the opportunity to be published in the peer-review journals partners of the conference, which are referenced on the conference website. 

The Congress will consist of 4 plenary + 4 keynote speakers, 41 invited talks, 700+ oral presentations and 300+ posters on topics at the cutting edge of the various Tribology disciplines, a wide exhibition and various events, scientific and nonscientific, some of them dedicated to young tribologists.
