The Organization of An Invited Workshop to Assess the State-of-the-art Nanotribology and to Identify Critical Research Issues

研讨会将评估纳米摩擦学的最新技术，并确定纳米摩擦学在几个重叠兴趣领域的关键研究问题：MEMS，中观制造，纳米技术和微系统，将来自这些不同社区的研究人员聚集在一起。本次研讨会将包括实验学家、理论家和数值建模者的参与，对纳米摩擦学问题的粘滞、纳米尺度的摩擦和磨损、MEMS润滑等进行评估。

A workshop will assess the state-of-the-art and identify critical research issues in nanotribology in several areas of overlapping interest: MEMS, meso-manufacturing, nanotechnology, and microsystems in general by bringing researchers from these diverse communities together. The workshop will include participation from experimentalists, theoreticians, and numerical modelers in an evaluation of nanotriboilogical problems of stiction, nano-scale friction and wear, MEMS lubrication, etc.
