Call for Papers

The Global Power and Propulsion Society (GPPS) has invited researchers to submit abstracts for the 2026 International Technical Conference.

A Student Paper Competition will be held as part of the conference. Eligible students must serve as the lead and presenting authors of their submissions. Winners will be announced during the Technical Conference in Montreal, Canada.

The GPPS Turbomachinery Technical Conference attracts submissions from Europe, the USA, Canada and Asia and is a prestigious event in the Energy and Aviation industries. It provides a prominent platform for young talents to showcase and promote their research. Following the presentation of papers, we are committed to disseminating and endorsing this research through various academic indexing portals. To support authors in advancing their research endeavors, all copyrights will remain with the respective authors after the event.

Note: The abstract deadline has passed, but for exceptional cases or significant research, contact us with your proposed abstract for consideration.
