Dear colleagues:
The Tribology Division of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE) invite you to participate in the International Joint Tribology Conference to be held October 7-10, 2012 at the Westin Denver Downtown in Denver, Colorado.
For over 50 years, this meeting has brought together researchers from around the world, providing a forum for the exchange of new ideas and new technology and meetings between participants from academia, research laboratories, industry, and government agencies. The 2012 IJTC will continue this important function in a very popular location. The schedule includes technical sessions, special symposia and a Student Poster Competition. This year, the conference will be proud to host the Second Symposium on Biomimetics and Green Tribology and the Second Symposium on Condition Monitoring.
