Workshop on Research Needs in Friction

一个关于摩擦学研究需求的研讨会将由ASME协调。将对主要行业团体进行初步调查，以确定他们在摩擦方面最紧迫的研究需求。随后将召开一次研讨会，评估摩擦研究的现状，制定既具有良好科学性又符合工业需求的长期基础研究计划，并建议优先事项。感兴趣的领域包括摩擦的基本性质及其研究中先进技术的使用，表面结构和表面反应对摩擦的影响，以及摩擦与机械振动和噪声之间的相互作用。

A workshop on research needs in friction will be coordinated by the ASME. Initial surveys will be made of major industry groups to determine their most pressing research needs in friction. A workshop will subsequently be convened to evaluate the current status of friction research, to formulate long-term basic research programs which are both good science and responsive to the industrial needs, and to recommend priorities. Areas of interest include the fundamental nature of friction and the use of advanced techniques for its study, the effects of surface structure and surface reactions on friction, and the interaction between friction and mechanical vibrations and noise.
