SUMMARY:8th International Flame Chemistry Workshop
LOCATION:Doshisha University, Shinmachi Campus , Giappone, 〒602-0047 Kyoto, Kamigyo Ward, Konoedenomotecho, 159-1, Kyoto
DESCRIPTION:8th International Flame Chemistry Workshop\n\n07/25/26 08:00 AM JAP\n - 07/26/26 06:00 PM JAP\Description:\nthe 8th International Flame Chemistry Workshop (FCWS) will take place on 25–26 July 2026, as a satellite event of the 41st International Symposium on Combustion, in Kyoto, Japan, continuing the FCWS tradition of providing a focused forum for in-depth discussion within the combustion chemistry community.\nThe workshop will be held jointly with other satellite workshops at Shinmachi-Campus of Doshisha University which is located 5 metro stops away from the Symposium venue.\nThe objective of this workshop is to bring together leading experts and early career researchers in combustion chemistry, flame science, chemical kinetics modeling, plasma chemistry, and diagnostics. Building on the discussions from the 7thFlame Chemistry Workshop held in Milan in July 2024, we aim to initiate a coordinated community effort to address key challenges identified therein. We would be delighted if you could contribute your expertise to this important initiative.\nThe workshop will focus on five interconnected topical areas:\n\n\n	Sustainable fuels combustion\n	Advanced diagnostics for combustion measurements\n	Plasma-assisted combustion\n	AI, automation, benchmarking, and knowledge transfer in theoretical kinetics\n	Progress and accuracy in chemical kinetics mechanism development\n\nThe program will include invited oral contributions covering current challenges and providing inputs for collective actions in these areas, as well as a poster session aligned with the workshop themes. Poster abstracts will be solicited from the community soon.\nA joint session with the Rapid Compression Machine Workshop will be scheduled for the morning of the 25th, to discuss common challenges and share best practices of community driven efforts.\nDiscussions and oral contributions at the 8th FCWS will be guided by a recently published perspective paper (see attached file) summarizing the outcomes of the 7th FCWS (Milan, 2024).\nMore detailed information will be shared soon, including the agenda, registration costs and deadline, list of invited speakers, abstract templates and deadlines for poster presentations.\nFor registration instructions, please refer to the Symposium website.\n \Details:\nDuration: Saturday 25th - all day + light dinner reception and poster session.

<p>The objective of this workshop is to bring together leading experts and early career researchers in combustion chemistry, flame science, chemical kinetics modeling, plasma chemistry, and diagnostics. Building on the discussions from the 7<sup>th</sup>Flame Chemistry Workshop held in Milan in July 2024, we aim to initiate a coordinated community effort to address key challenges identified therein. We would be delighted if you could contribute your expertise to this important initiative.</p>
The workshop will focus on five interconnected topical areas:

<ul>
	<li>Sustainable fuels combustion</li>
	<li>Advanced diagnostics for combustion measurements</li>
	<li>Plasma-assisted combustion</li>
	<li>AI, automation, benchmarking, and knowledge transfer in theoretical kinetics</li>
	<li>Progress and accuracy in chemical kinetics mechanism development</li>
</ul>
The program will include <strong>invited oral contributions</strong> covering current challenges and providing inputs for collective actions in these areas, as well as a <strong>poster session</strong> aligned with the workshop themes. Poster abstracts will be solicited from the community soon.<br />
A joint session with the Rapid Compression Machine Workshop will be scheduled for the morning of the 25<sup>th</sup>, to discuss common challenges and share best practices of community driven efforts.<br />
Discussions and oral contributions at the 8<sup>th</sup> FCWS will be guided by a recently published <a href="https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1mbd12KiHps9Y"><strong>perspective paper</strong></a>&nbsp;(see attached file) summarizing the outcomes of the 7<sup>th</sup> FCWS (Milan, 2024).<br />
More detailed information will be shared soon, including the agenda, registration costs and deadline, list of invited speakers, abstract templates and deadlines for poster presentations.<br />
