The Global Fluid Power Society (GFPS) is excited to announce the call for papers for the upcoming GFPS PhD Symposium 2024, scheduled from June 17 to June 20, 2024, in Hudiksvall, Sweden.
Hudiksvall is a center for Fluid Power industry in northern Sweden and the conference is organized jointly between Linköping University and the Hudiksvall Hydraulics Cluster, HHK. The conference will be embedded in the industrial landscape and there will be plenty of opportunities for industrial visits as well as an exhibition at the conference site.
This symposium offers a unique platform for PhD students worldwide to present their research in fluid power technology, and receive invaluable feedback from esteemed academics, industry professionals, and fellow researchers.
A notable highlight of this year's symposium is that accepted papers will be published in a dedicated book by Springer Nature, a premier global publisher of scientific content. This publication provides a great opportunity to increase the visibility and impact of your research. The book will be open access.
Conference Theme: Advancements in Fluid Power Technology - Sustainability, Electrification and Digitalization
