Lubrication Engineering is an academic journal supervised by China Association for Science and Technology(CAST) and sponsored by Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society(CMES) and Guangzhou Mechanical Engineering Research Institute(GMERI). Founded in 1976,it is the society journal of Tribology Institute (CTI) of CMES, the core journals of Chinese. It is now openly distributed monthly in both print and electronic forms, and both at home (CN44-1260/TH) and abroad ( ISSN 0254-0150).
As one of the major sci-tech journals in China, It is indexed and abstracted by Chemical Abstracts (CA), USA,EBSCO, USA,Japan Science and Technology Revitalization Agency Database,Chinese Science Citation Database(CSCD), China Science Periodical Database(CSPD), Journal/Database of Statistical Sources of China Scientific Papers,Chinese Science Abstracts.
The journal covers the latest developments and achievements in tribology,including friction and wear, lubrication engineering, tribological design and seal techniques. The readers of the journal include the researchers of tribology, the equipment management and maintenance staff, the product marketing staff as well as the teachers and students in the college.
The mission of Lubrication Engineering is to serve researchers through prompt publication of significant advances in the branch of tribology, to encourage communication of high quality, innovative research results at tribology and related disciplines, and it is aimed to become an international academic journal of tribology.
Lubrication Engineering now aims for even higher academic standards and quality. It is hoped that experts and scholars from different parts of the world will render their enthusiastic support to it so as to enhance academic exchanges and foster our common cause of scientific research.
