Les Rencontres Scientifiques de l’IFP: Advances in Hybrid Powertrains

25-26 November 2008
IFP/Rueil-Malmaison

First Announcement and Call for Papers

Today, hybrid powertrains are expected to have a substantial impact on road travel and its technology still has a long way to go before it reaches maturity. New classes of components, particularly well suited to hybrid applications, are increasingly being studied, prototyped or released. Consequently, hybrid powertrains are still a subject of in-depth research.

This international conference, jointly organized with TNO, is therefore designed to be a scientific and technical event gathering together players from the worlds of academic research, applied research and industry and focusing on the medium-term development of hybrid powertrains for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, buses, and delivery trucks.

The main topics addressed by the conference will be:

optimization of thermal engines for hybrid applications,
system-level supervisory control and optimization,
specific transmissions for hybrid applications,
on-board energy storage systems,
optimized electric motors,
dedicated power electronics,
heat recovery for next generation of hybrid vehicles,
modeling and support tools for the design of hybrids,
from a scientific and technical viewpoint.

We encourage you to read the first circular and submit abstracts before 18 April 2008 to hybrid2008@ifp.fr, using the template available hereunder.
