The Association of Equipment Manufacturers is calling for abstracts from industry for potential education presentations at IFPE 2014, which will be held March 4-8 in Las Vegas next year.
Formerly known as the International Fluid Power Exposition, the triennial IFPE will be co-located with CONEXPO-CON/AGG, the huge trade expo for the construction industries, at the Las Vegas Convention Center. For the education component of the show, known as the IFPE Technical Conference, AEM has set a deadline of June 6 for abstracts from industry educators, engineers, researchers, and scientists on a range of topics concerning the fluid power and motion control industries.
The IFPE Technical Conference focuses on new technologies and methods related to improved analysis, design, manufacture, and performance of fluid power components and systems. Conference proceedings will be published and available at the conference. 
Topic areas include fluids (including new and green), fluid power systems, fluid power in renewable energy applications, basic components, controls and control systems, auxiliary components related to fluid power, seals and sealing technology, noise and vibration (analysis, measurement, control), materials and manufacturing (including new and green), impact of Tier 4 and beyond, standards (industry, national, international), and analysis, modeling, and simulation.
