icpt 2011 - The International Conference on Power Transmissions (ICPT’ 2011)

1. Time and Place
　　October 25-29, 2011
　　Northwestern Polytechnique University
　　Xi'an Shaanxi Province
　　People's Republic of China
2. Scope and Outline
　　The International Conference on Power Transmissions is set up as a series of international academic events co-sponsored by the Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society (CMES) and Chinese Society of Aeronautics and Astronautics (CSAA), associated by Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) and Verein Deutscher Ingenieure (VDI), and financially supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China. The 1st International Conference on Power Transmissions (ICPT2011) will be jointly organized and hosted by The State Key Laboratory of Mechanical Transmission, China Aviation Powerplant Research Institute, Zhengzhou Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Northwestern Polytechnical University.
　　ICPT'2011 will be held on October 25-29, 2011 in Xi’an, China. It covers all aspects on the frontiers of power transmissions and offers an opportunity to bring together worldwide academic researchers and industrial engineers for exchange of information and promote the research collaborations on the state-of-the-art development and applications in the overall field of power transmissions.
　　The top well-known professors in the field of power transmissions have accepted our invitation and will be co-chairmen or members of international scientific committee of ICPT2011. They will also give opening lectures or presentations in ICPT'2011. The organizing committee will make the conference to be a highest level academic event.
　　The ICPT'2011 organizing committee welcomes academic researchers and industrial engineers from all around the world to participate in this event. The official language of the conference is English. The organizing committee will “double blind review” each paper. Papers accepted by ICPT 2011 will be published on international proceedings Journal of “Applied Mechanics and Materials” (ISSN: 1660-9336) and be indexed by EI Compendex.
