Present your work in Aberdeen, then write it up as a full paper for a proposed proceedings volume, or an extended article for a partner journal special issue. Every submission is peer reviewed by the scientific committee.
Both routes are in discussion with publishers. We will confirm details on this page as soon as agreements are in place.
We have proposed a volume in Springer's Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering series. The series is indexed in Scopus and EI Compendex. Inclusion of the volume is subject to publisher approval.
Selected authors will be invited to submit substantially extended papers to a special issue of a partner journal. The journal, scope and timeline are to be confirmed.
Up to 300 words, submitted through your account to one of the seven tracks, the industry case-study sessions or the PGR showcase.
6–10 pages using the publisher's template (to be confirmed), based on your accepted and presented abstract.
For invited authors only. A substantially extended article for the partner journal special issue, following the journal's own author guidelines.
Every track has an academic and an industry co-chair, so submissions are judged on scientific quality and on their relevance to practice.
Submissions are reviewed by members of the scientific committee. Reviewers see the authors' names, but authors do not see the reviewers' names. Abstracts are reviewed on a rolling basis, with decisions in about ten days, and full papers receive a further review before acceptance.
Reviewers declare any conflict, such as the same institution, recent co-authorship, supervision or a commercial interest, and are not assigned to those papers. Committee members' own submissions are handled by another co-chair.
Submissions must be original and must not be under review elsewhere in the same form. Data and prior work should be properly cited. Use of AI tools must be disclosed, and AI tools cannot be listed as authors. Suspected plagiarism or duplicate publication is investigated and may lead to rejection or withdrawal.
Abstracts first, the conference in February, and full papers in March. Dates for the special issue will be added once the partner journal is confirmed.
Accounts open, and rolling review starts.
300 words, for oral, poster or industry case study.
