PSSCE CONGRESS 2021 Dear Colleagues, Ladies and Gentlemen, On 27th-28th September 2021, the Polish Scientific Society of Combustion Engines, in cooperation with the the Mechanical Engineering Faculty of the Lublin University of Technology organizes the 9th International Congress on Combustion Engines. As it was in the past, we want the Congress will be a forum for the exchange of experiences between experts representing science, research and industry. More often we observe that the research work involves interdisciplinary teams which represent different areas of science. We hope therefore for participation in the Congress not only specialists in internal combustion engines but also specialists from related fields. Please provide information about the Congress to your colleagues and others who are close to issues connected with internal combustion engines. On behalf of the PTNSS Board I cordially invite to attend the Congress. See you in Lublin in September 2021. Sincerely, Prof. Jerzy Merkisz President of the Board of PTNSS More information HERE.
