Volume 2080: Emerging Trends in Mechanical Engineering 2018

Summary of this volume: The First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Mechanical Engineering takes forward the deliberations initiated through the National Conference series started in 2015. The conference focused on emerging trends in Mechanical Engineering, primarily in Materials Science and Engineering, Energy and allied thermal sciences, Manufacturing, Design and allied Computational Sciences, along with Industrial Engineering and Management. The proceedings presents research outcomes and latest developments on the above listed areas. Research on composite materials continues to dominate the materials science area. Research in Biofuels with focus on nanoparticle additives also finds importance. Papers on Lean and agile manufacturing are also included. This year’s proceedings also shows a good number of papers in thermal sciences.

These proceedings will be of interest to: Graduate students, research scholars in mechanical engineering, M. Tech students, and undergraduate students.
