Description The 24th Leeds-Lyon Symposium was held in London from 4th-6th September 1997, where it was hosted by the Imperial College of Science,
Technology and Medicine.
The meeting addressed the topic of "Tribology for Energy Conservation" and attracted a wide range of stimulating
papers and speakers. Some 150 delegates from nineteen countries attended and about sixty papers were presented in fifteen sessions. These
covered the topics of lubricants, wear, friction reduction, hydrodynamics, elastohydrodynamic lubrication, surface roughness, manufacturing,
component life (including condition monitoring), and automotive aspects.
Audience
For scientists, researchers and manufacturers interested in tribology for energy conservation.
