 on periods and a workshop session\, will cover the key elements of the sub
 ject and will be complemented by case studies drawn from current industria
 l practice.\n \n*Topics*\n* Surface topography and contact mechanics\n* Hy
 drodynamic\, elasto-hydrodynamic and boundary lubrication\n* Rheology and 
 lubricant chemistry\n* Wear and friction of metals\, ceramics and polymers
 \n* Surface engineering\n* Test methods in tribology\n* Industrial Case st
 udies\n\n*Who should attend?*\n* Scientists and engineers who need an appr
 eciation of the technical basis of the subject\n* Design and research engi
