FOREWORD

Society of Automotive Engineers – Thailand (TSAE) is pleased to announce that the 28th Small Powertrains and Energy Systems Technology Conference (SETC2024) will be held at the Berkeley Hotel Pratunam in Bangkok, Thailand.

The conference is jointly sponsored JSAE and SAE International with the support of Japan Land Engine Manufacturers Association (LEMA), Society of Automotive Engineers – Thailand (TSAE) and the Thai Automotive Industry Association (TAIA).

TSAE is asking you to share your experience and knowledge on small powertrain applications submitting an abstract for the SETC2024.

Attendees are also encouraged to meet experts of OEMs, suppliers and academia from around the world, and discuss the challenges and developments in small powertrains and energy systems technology with them. This is the reason why the authors of papers are required to attend the conference for their presentations.

PAPER INSTRUCTION


Paper Entry System will be opened on December 1, 2023

1. LANGUAGE: English
No simultaneous interpretation will be provided.

2.Submission of Abstract (On-line submission)
Abstracts must be submitted online via SETC website page to only ONE session, with 300 to 500 words. Upon submission, you will receive an automatic reply with your paper offer number. If you do not receive a paper offer number at that point, please retry on-line submission or contact the secretariat shown on the bottom of this page.

The following information will be required during on-line submission process:

  • A summary that states the objective of the paper/presentation
  • Paper title
  • Name of the author and co-authors and all contact information required
  • Selection of the most appropriate technical session

The abstract should clearly state:

  • The main issues and conclusions
  • The process which the conclusions were reached
  • The significance of the work to progress of the relevant engineering area

3. Papers/Presentations
The papers should be written and presented at the conference, which should be application oriented. No paper will be accepted without a presentation.

  • The papers should be prepared in hard metric (SI) units.
  • Material of a purely descriptive nature or containing commercialism should be omitted except new product technology session.
  • Final manuscripts should make a contribution to the state-of-the-art technology or present a comprehensive review, be of high technical quality with conclusions supported technical data.
  • A presenting author, when his/her final manuscript accepted, is asked to make on-line advanced registration via SETC website linked to the registration system and also to bring his/her own PC for presentation to the venue.
  • Excellent papers and presentations will be awarded prizes.
  • Your technical paper could be selected for SAE journal.

LOCAL INFORMATION

Information about Bangkok

Bangkok is Thailand’s capital in every sense. It is where Royal Family resides and where government and administration are located, and it is the focal point for virtually all major industrial, commercial and financial activities. It is the country’s main port and home to one tenth of the Kingdom’s population. Bangkok is also the country’s principal gateway and prime tourist attraction.
