CALL FOR PAPERS – SICFP23
INVITATIONThe Laboratory of Innovative Hydraulics and Automation(IHA) at Tampere University (TAU), Finland, will host the18th Scandinavian International Conference on Fluid
Power, SICFP23, May 30 - June 1, 2023.
The conference is arranged on a biannual basis
alternating between Tampere University and Linköping
University. Right now, fluid power is in an exciting stageof transformation - from the perspective of digitalization,
the use of artificial intelligence, automation, andsustainability.
The SICFP is a forum for exchanging information on thelatest developments in off-road machinery, robotics, andother applications of fluid power from industry andacademia.
All manuscripts are offered the opportunity to go througha peer-review process to guarantee scientific soundness.
I look forward to seeing you in Tampere in May 2023.

ORGANIZERThe conference will be organized and hosted by
Innovative Hydraulics and Automation (IHA) in the Facultyof Engineering and Natural Sciences at Tampere
University (TAU), Finland. Supporting hosts will be theGlobal Fluid Power Society (GFPS) and the Finnish cluster
Sustainable Industry X (SIX).
Fluid power and automation are one of the Laboratory’s
priority research areas. Our main research areas include
sustainable drive systems and actuators, autonomous
heavy machinery, and the robotic control of workingmachines. In fluid power research, we are following threeprinciples: interdisciplinary research, the bridging oftheory and practice, and cooperation with industry.

ABSTRACTTAMPERE

Authors are invited to submit titles and abstracts ofproposed papers for SICFP23 by 30 May 2022. Abstracts
of no more than 500 words should state the purpose,result, and conclusions of the proposed papers withsupporting figures where appropriate. The abstracts aresubmitted through the online registration system of theconference. More detailed information will be available
on the conference website:

Tampere has made a name for itself as a major Nordic
congress destination, particularly since the inaugurationof Tampere Hall two decades ago. The city’s excellent
infrastructure and services meet the needs of even themost demanding congress delegate.

The SICFP23 conference will be held in Tampere Hall,
which is a leading conference facility in Finland and amajor conference and concert center in Scandinavia.
Tampere Hall hosts over 20 international conferences
every year.
Tampere is a beautiful, green city between two lakes,
offering an array of leisure activities, such as Nordicwalking, lake cruises, original sauna experiences, andswimming in the freshwater lakes.
Tampere is easily accessible. Tampere International
Airport is served by direct flights from several Europeancities. The airport is compact and close to the city center.
You will be at your hotel half an hour after your plane has
landed! If you fly to Helsinki, then the easiest way is totake a train from Helsinki Airport to Tampere. Anotheroption is to take a direct bus from Helsinki airport toTampere city center.
