Indian Institute of Technology Tirupati (IITT), Indian Institute of Technology Patna (IITP), Indian Institute of Technology Dharwad (IITDh), and Indian Institute of Science Bangalore (IISc) India are jointly organizing the 4th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON FRICTION BASED PROCESSES-2025 at IIT TIRUPATI India during 6-8 September 2025.
With a 10-year tradition since 2014, International Conference on Friction-Based Processes (ICFP) provides a global platform for the latest advancements in friction-based manufacturing processes used for various materials and industrial applications. The conference covers a wide range of scientific topics, from fundamental issues in materials deformation to applications of engineering materials. With a focus on recent advances in friction-based metal forming processes, friction welding, linear friction welding, friction stir welding, friction based additive manufacturing and related processes, the 4th International Conference on Friction Based Processes (4th ICFP2025) will bring together researchers, practitioners and newcomers to the field in an international forum. 4th ICFP will also serve as a vehicle that strengthens relationships between industry, research laboratories, and academic institutes. Friction-based processes have emerged as powerful techniques for joining, materials development and fabrication. These solid-state processes offer advantages over traditional methods, especially for challenging materials and latest materials development. This conference is a continuation of the successful events held previously in India, China and Japan.
Join us at 4th ICFP 2025 to shape the future of Friction - Based Processes research through collaboration and innovation.
