The award ceremony is scheduled to be held at Meiji Memorial Hall on April 18th.

| Award-winning paper | Effect of atmosphere on the wear properties of phenolic resin composites (verification of the effect of moisture in the air and proposal of the effect of tribolysis gas) Transactions of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, Vol. 82, No. 840 (August 2016), 16-00107 |
| Paper Summary | This paper examines the effect of moisture in the air on brake pad wear, which has previously been known empirically. In addition, they proposed a new mechanism in which decomposition gases generated by the brake pads themselves due to friction also play a role in wear. |
