History of Tribology UK The Tribology UK, the
student networking event has reached its 5th
anniversary after the successful launch at Leeds,
Sheffield, Imperial College and Leeds again in
the past four years. This student-led two day

tour, professional experience testimonies and the
opportunity for young researchers to exchange
ideas in the wide range of fields in Tribology.
These areas include automotive tribology,
coating development, bio-tribology, lubricated
contacts, surface roughness, tribochemistry and
modelling. Location Southampton is one of the
most lively and dynamic cities in the south of
England. It offers a vibrant and varied
nightlife, numerous leisure facilities, superb
