The International Tribology Conference (ITC) was founded by the Japanese Society of Tribologists (JAST). The ITC was first held in Tokyo (1985) following the JSLE-ASLE International Lubrication Conference (1975). Following successful conferences in Nagoya (1990), Yokohama (1995), Nagasaki (2000), Kobe (2005), Hiroshima (2011), and Tokyo (2015), ITC 2019 will be held in Sendai, Japan.
On 17th September – 21st September 2019, 5 TriPreM members attended and presented their work at a prestigious international conference: the International Tribology Conference, which has been held around every 5 years since 1985. It’s a great achievement for TriPreM after 7 years from its establishment.
