ICAVP2021 invites full papers describing original and yet unpublished work. All papers must include title, complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and keywords on the cover page. Research papers reporting on new development of powertrains for conventional, hybrid and electric vehicles, while industry and development papers reporting on actual developments of technology, products, systems and solutions. In addition, ICAVP will invite keynotes, organize workshop and panels. Best papers will be selected for award.

Paper Submission

Papers must be submitted in PDF format. Detailed submission instructions refer to the conference website. Direct your questions to Program Chairs: Prof. Khajepour (akhajepo@uwaterloo.ca) and Conference Chair Prof. Xu (xxy@buaa.edu.cn). All quality papers will be recommended to IJPT for further publishing.

Award

Conference participants will have a specially discounted personal online subscription to IJPT. Authors with the best paper award will receive a free personal online subscription to the journal (for one year).
