Call for Papers
The Global Power and Propulsion Society (GPPS) has invited researchers to submit abstracts for the 2025 International Technical Conference, which will be held in Shanghai, China, from September 4 to 6, 2025.
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 Shanghai.
The GPPS Turbomachinery Technical Conference attracts submissions from around the world 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.
