Komentarz Prezesa
Szanowne Koleżanki i Koledzy,
Drodzy polscy Tribolodzy!
Nasza piękna dziedzina naukowa dynamicznie rozwija się. Polskie Towarzystwo Tribologiczne aktywnością swoich członków udowadnia, że jej rozwój w Polsce dorównuje tempem rozwojowi w skali międzynarodowej.
Miniony rok przyniósł szereg, bardzo istotnych dla funkcjonowania środowiska, działań:
jednodniowe, bezpłatne warsztaty tribologiczne, zorganizowane w pięciu silnych ośrodkach naukowych,
świetnie zorganizowaną Szkołę Tribologiczną, nawiązanie współpracy z:
Polskim Towarzystwem Diagnostyki Technicznej oraz Polskim Towarzystwem Eksploatacyjnym (m.in. wspólna konferencja na Słowacji).
Nastąpił wzrost znaczenia i punktacji czasopisma Tribologia,
wzrost szeregów PTT o ponad sześćdziesięciu nowych członków, głównie młodych naukowców.
Nasza aktywność w tym roku będzie miała szereg nowych nowych możliwości przejwienia się: na początku planujemy podpisać umowy o współpracy z Amerykańskim Towarzystwem Tribologicznym (STLE, USA), która przewiduje uzyskanie przez członków PTT większości uprawnień jego amerykańskich członków, planujemy organizowanie z nimi (jak również z kolegami z innych krajów, m.in. Meksyku) wspólnych warsztatów naukowych.
Planujemy wznowić wydanie Tribologii i Tribotechniki (uaktualnione i wzbogacone - zapraszamy do współpracy nowych autorów),
zapraszamy do zgłaszania kandydatów do nagrody PTT za rok 2007 (termin do końca kwietnia 2008r.).
Zapraszamy do odwiedzin i współtworzenia naszej strony internetowej (www.tribologia.org).
Zapraszamy do udziału w XXIX Szkole Tribologicznej, organizowanej w przepięknych Bieszczadach!
Wspólnie, nawet najmniejsze działania mogą dać synergiczny efekt.
Życząc Wszystkiego Najlepszego w tym Roku, zapraszamy serdecznie do współpracy.

ITC Information
January 2007 (No.187)
1. Focus on Tribology in Finland
This issue of the ITC Information Sheet contains a number of features highlighting the tribology activities in Finland. It is my hope that this will be the start of a process in which the newsletter can host a regular feature covering work taking place a specific countries around the world in detail.
These special feature articles have been kindly compiled by Arto Lehtovaara of the University of Tampere and Kenneth Holmberg of the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and I would like to record my thanks for their generous assistance.
2. A History of Tribology in Finland
In Finland, documentation of the oldest of tribological activity describes the glacial periods, when the whole Scandinavia was covered by an up to 3000 m thick layer of ice in slow motion. During these periods, third-body abrasion by grit under the ice pressure and erosion by melt water falling from the top of the ice layer formed the topography of the Nordic countries into their present shape. ….
3. A Profile of the Finnish Tribology Society
The Finnish Tribology Society was founded 1978 and was heavily influenced by the enthusiastic and amusing lectures on tribology held in Finland by Professor John Halling and his team from Salford University in UK. The mission of the Society is to support research, technical development and education in tribology in Finland, to improve the awareness and development of tribological know-how in Finnish industry and to maintain and strenghten the international co-operation with foreign tribology societies. The Society has been active as host of large international meetings. The largest being the 5th International Congress on Tribology – EUROTRIB ‘89 in Helsinki, attended by about 500 delegates from 35 different countries. It was the largest and most international tribology meeting of that time. ….
4. NORDTRIB – The Nordic Sympoium on Tribology
The NORDTRIB symposium is held biennially in one of the Nordic countries: Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. It was first hosted by Tampere University of Technology, Prof. Kauko Aho in Tampere, Finland in 1984. Over the years the Symposium has evolved into a highly regarded venue for the international tribology community. NORDTRIB is intended as a forum where researchers and developers from universities, research institutes and industry can present their latest contributions and also discuss field-related issues. Nowadays the Symposium gathers 120 – 150 participants from 20-30 different countries. Those considered to be the best papers presented at the Symposium has been selected for publication in special issues of Wear and Tribology International journals.
NORDTRIB 2008 - 13th Nordic Symposium on Tribology - will be held in Tampere, Finland at 10-13 June 2008. Now, after 24 years, the symposium will return to its roots. The Symposium venue is situated in idyllic wooded surroundings near the shore of Lake Pyhäjärvi in Pyynikki Park, just a 15-minute walk from the city centre. The Symposium is organized by Tampere University of Technology with the support of the Finnish Society for Tribology. Submission of abstracts is at latest; 30 November 2007. The main information source for the Symposium is: http://www.tut.fi/nordtrib2008, where the details of the "call for papers" can be found..
5. Prominent Finnish Tribologists
The most prominent contemporary Finnish tribologist is undoubtedly Professor Kenneth Holmberg, one of the Vice-Presidents of the International Tribology Council. He started his career in tribology in 1978 with Lic. and Dr Thesis work on EHL and surface texturing effects in boundary lubrication. He joined the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland in 1980 and set up a new tribology laboratory for industrial applications. He has combined in his research machinery reliability aspects and tribology of components. His main research contribution is related to explaining the tribological mechanisms of surfaces covered with thin vacuum deposited coatings. He published a book n this subject in 1994 "Coatings tribology" and has since contributed several book chapters, given a number of invited lectures at international conferences and published many scientific papers. His recent research is focused on optimising coated surfaces by modelling and stress simulation, considering fracture mechanics and scale effects. He has also been coordinator of several large European joint research programmes in the field of tribology, reliability and maintenance engineering. He has been responsible for arranging and initiating a number of scientific conferences, e.g. EUROTRIB ‘89, the NODRTRIB conferences, COMADEM, and edited several books and proceedings. In his free time he enjoys skiing cross country, long-distance running and canoeing.
Many other scientists and engineers are active in Finland. It is impossible to give a comprehensive list of them in a newsletter such as this. However, some of the more well known ones are represented I the tables below. ….
6. Details of Major Finnish Organisations and Current Major Projects
A wide range of academic and industrial organisations participate in the research, development and application of tribological principles in the manufacture and operation of products and systems within Finland. The list below gives details of some of the major participants in these activities. ….
7. New President for IRG OECD Wear of advanced materials group
A change in the presidency of the OECD International Research Group (IRG) on Wear of Engineering Materials has taken place.

Prof. Ian Hutchings from Cambridge University (UK) was elected new President of the group and has been in post since the 1st January 2007. The Scientific Secretary of the IRG OECD wear group continues to be Prof Amilcar Ramalho from University of Coimbra, Portugal. ….
8. Academician Prof. Dr. Sc Nguyen Anh Tuan (12.09.1935 - 17.12.2006)
It is with great regret we report the death of Academician Prof. Nguyen Anh Tuan. He was born in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam and studied mechanical engineering at the Tianjin University, China after which he became Assistant Professor in Mechanical Engineering at the newly formed Hanoi University of Technology.
In 1963 he went to the USSR for his doctorate at the Moscow State Technological University. The results of his research work were so outstanding that he was asked to continue and became the first Vietnamese Doctor of Engineering Science in 1974. ….
9. Tribology Congress 2009 (WTC IV) - Preparation in progress
The fourth World Tribology Congress will be held in Kyoto from 6th to 11th September, 2009. The Japanese Society of Tribologists has started preparatory works for organizing the congress. Professor Yoshitsugu Kimura chairs the Organizing Committee, and Mr. Masatami Takimoto, Executive Vice President of Toyota Motor Corporation, chairs the Executive Advisory Committee for supporting the organization. The Science Council of Japan, a Government organization, also recognizes the importance of this event and is expected to be a co-organizer of WTC IV.
The venue for WTC IV is Kyoto International Conference Hall, the hall well known for a number of important international meetings including the Climate Summit in 1997. As science and technology are required to contribute towards achieving sustainable developments in the planet Earth, it has a great meaning to bring together many of tribology researchers and engineers from around the world at this venue.
Kyoto, the old capital of Japan for 1200 years, is the cultural heart of Japan. The history and heritage live on in the modern city; seventeen UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Sites are situated in a cityscape dominated by 2000 temples and shrines. The city offers you endless opportunities to enjoy Japan.
The scope of the congress includes every aspect of fundamental and applied tribology: tribology fundamentals, surface engineering, manufacturing and mechanical components, lubrication, lubricants and additives, micro-, nano- and molecular-tribology, and tribosystems. Particular areas to be focused on will be tribology for environmental protection, human related tribology, large scale simulations in tribology, and industrial tribology problems in the Asia-Pacific region.
There will be regular technical sessions, poster sessions, symposium sessions on some particular areas, and exhibitions. In a special session, a lecture will be given by Professor Masatoshi Koshiba, the 2002 Nobel laureate for physics. Social program will include Welcome Reception on Sunday, Banquet on Wednesday, and technical and sightseeing tours. As the important additional events, luncheon seminars are planned where we discuss future directions of tribology.

The 2007 Tribology Gold Medal
Awarded to
PROFESSOR KOJI KATO
In recognition of his outstanding contribution and services to tribology, especially in the field of ceramic tribology
THE 2007 TRIBOLOGY GOLD MEDALProfessor Koji Kato was born in 1943. He received his Bachelor degree in 1966, his Masters degree in 1968 and his PhD in 1974, all at the Faculty of Engineering, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan, in which university he has spent most of his professional life. After working as a Research Associate of Mechanical Engineering Department between 1971 to 1980, he became in 1980 Associate Professor and in 1987 Professor and Head of the Laboratory of Tribology, a position which he held until his retirement in 2007. He is now Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Nihon University. Professor Kato's work and activities encompassed many parts of the science and technology of tribology. He was instrumental in the now famous tribology laboratory at Tohoku University, of which he was Chairman from 1987 to 2007. His successful work has covered many different areas in the field of tribology. Outstanding of these was the fundamental work covering abrasive wear mechanism of metals; the development of friction and wear mode maps of metals and ceramics under a variety of sliding conditions; deposition and tribological characterisation of different types of low-friction coatings; fundamental work on the formation of different types of surface film formed during tribological contact, and how these tribofilms influenced wear and friction characteristics of the tribo system and fundamental work of the head-disk tribological contact in hard disk drives. Jointly with colleagues, he invented a novel technique to apply solid lubricants during operation, caused by the detection of an increased coefficient of friction, thus increasing service reliability, also the service life of space tribo-elements. His Tribo-Assisted Coating was invented in 1990 on applications in space systems, this project having received active support from NASA. Professor Kato is known internationally as one of the leading researchers in microtribology, hard coatings, contact mechanics, head-disk interface tribology, as well as surface engineering and ceramics. However, best known is his work in the field of ceramics, where his work was outstanding. He enhanced the understanding of ceramic tribology/wear maps and of the mechanism of wear/macro and micro. He was responsible for the early successful application of AFM to tribology and importance to sliding systems without mineral oil lubricants. His influence on science and technology was to a large extent the assessment of wear mechanisms of ceramic materials and indeed, his influence in industry and the economy with the assessment of potential ceramic materials and coatings for sliding contacts. Professor Kato invented a novel technique to polish ceramic balls by means of magnetic fluid, which drastically decreased the surface roughness of the balls, a technique which has since found wide application. Professor Kato's work was not limited to his scientific researches. He was actively and passionately involved in the education of the next generation of tribologists and was active in the promotion of many Ph.Ds and guided students through research projects involving some of Japan's largest companies. Professor Kato has received many honours, amongst which are Distinction Honoris Causa de l'Ecole Centrale de Lyon, France; Foreign Member of the Swedish Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences, the International Award of The Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE), USA and the Mayo D. Hersey Award of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the Japan Academy Award. His outstanding achievements and their international recognition, make Professor Kato a worthy recipient of Tribology's Highest Award for 2007, the Tribology Gold Medal.
