A delegation of nine tribology professors from China visited the BaltTribo-Polytechnic International Scientific and Educational Center at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials, and Transport at SPbPU. The visit was organized at the recommendation of Academicians Nikolai Myshkin (Belarus) and Irina Goryacheva (Russia) and at the initiative of Tsinghua University.
The purpose of the visit was to get acquainted with the Tribology Center in St. Petersburg and discuss partnership programs. The project's scientific director is Margarita Skotnikova.
The Chinese delegation included:
Professor Jianbin Luo (Tsinghua University, head of the delegation) Professor Xiangjun Zhang (Tsinghua University) Associate Professor Jie Jin (Tsinghua University) Assistant Professor Xinfeng Tang (Tsinghua University) Dr. Yi Luo (Tsinghua University) Professor Linmao Qian (Southwest Jiaotong University) Professor Aiying Wang (Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering) Professor Zhiguang Guo (Hubei University) Professor Guoxin Xie (Tsinghua University)
The following representatives took part in the event from the Russian side:
