Call For Papers - CFP

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:

1. Smart Manufacturing & Industry 4.0

This area focuses on the "digitalization" of the factory floor.

Digital Twins: Creating virtual replicas of physical assets to simulate performance and predict failures.

Industrial IoT (IIoT): Sensor networks for real-time machine telemetry and environmental monitoring.

Predictive Maintenance: Using AI to forecast equipment failure, reducing downtime by up to 70%.

Edge Computing: Processing data locally on machines to reduce latency in safety-critical loops.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS): Seamless integration between computational algorithms and physical components.

2. Advanced Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing)

Moving beyond prototyping into full-scale production of complex parts.

Metal Additive Manufacturing: Techniques like Selective Laser Melting (SLM) and Electron Beam Melting (EBM).

4D Printing: Materials that change shape or properties over time in response to external stimuli (heat, light, water).

Hybrid Manufacturing: Combining additive processes with traditional CNC machining in a single setup.

Large-Scale Additive Manufacturing (LSAM): 3D printing for construction and large aerospace structures.

Micro/Nano-AM: High-precision printing at the molecular level for electronics and medical implants.

3. Robotics & Autonomous Systems

The focus has shifted from "caged" industrial robots to collaborative and intelligent machines.

Collaborative Robots (Cobots): Robots designed to work safely alongside human operators without safety barriers.

Soft Robotics: Using flexible, bio-inspired materials for delicate handling in food or medical industries.

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs): Self-navigating robots for warehouse logistics and material handling.

AI-Driven Swarm Robotics: Multiple robots coordinating to perform complex assembly tasks.

Haptic Feedback Systems: Advanced sensors that allow robots to "feel" textures and grip strength.

4. AI-Augmented Design & Simulation

Engineering software is no longer just a drawing tool; it is now a design partner.

Generative Design: AI software that "grows" optimized shapes based on weight and stress constraints.

Topology Optimization: Removing unnecessary material from a part while maintaining structural integrity.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD): Advanced simulation of airflow for EVs and aerospace efficiency.

Virtual & Augmented Reality (VR/AR): Using "Digital Doppelgangers" for remote maintenance and immersive design reviews.

Multiphysics Simulation: Simultaneous analysis of heat, stress, and fluid dynamics in a single model.

5. Sustainable & Green Engineering

Driven by "Net-Zero" goals, this is the fastest-growing sector in mechanical research.

Circular Economy Manufacturing: Designing products for 100% recyclability and disassembly.

Green Hydrogen Powertrains: Mechanical systems for hydrogen storage and fuel cell propulsion.

Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure: Advanced battery thermal management systems and high-efficiency motors.

Carbon Capture Technologies: Mechanical systems designed to scrub $CO_2$ directly from industrial exhaust.

Self-Healing Materials: Polymers and metals that can repair micro-cracks autonomously, extending product life.

6. Materials Science & Nanotechnology

The development of "Super-Materials" with tailored properties.

Nanocomposites: Integrating carbon nanotubes or graphene to create ultra-lightweight, high-strength parts.

Metamaterials: Artificially engineered structures with properties not found in nature (e.g., negative refractive index).

High-Entropy Alloys (HEAs): Metals designed for extreme environments like jet engines or nuclear reactors.

Bio-inspired Materials: Mimicking natural structures (like bone or nacre) for superior impact resistance.
