The organizers of the 9th International Symposium on Marine Propulsors, smp’26, invite authors to submit technical papers describing the results of recent research on all aspects of marine propulsion. This may include numerical analysis, scaled model experiments or full-scale measurements.

Topics may include

• Propulsion system performance

• Hull-propeller interaction

• Cavitation

• Erosion on propellers and appendages

• Propeller generated noise and vibration

• Propeller-ice interaction

• Propeller design optimization

• Energy saving devices

• Ducted propellers

• Water jets

• Vertical axis propellers

• Azimuthing thrusters

• Alternative propulsion devices (waves, wind, etc.)

• Tidal turbines

Authors are kindly invited to submit their abstracts in pdf format by uploading them on the symposium website.

Each abstract text should be no longer than 300 – 500 words and must clearly indicate the objectives, contents and relevant results of the paper. The reviews will be conducted by members of the International Scientific Committee. After acceptance of the abstracts, the authors will be notified and invited to submit their full papers.

The language of the symposium is English. All abstracts, papers and presentations shall be in English.
