ABOUT THE INSTITUTE AND DEPARTMENTVardhaman College of Engineering (VCE) was established in 1999 with an

endeavor to impart high quality Technical Education and innovative research

in the fields of Engineering Technologies, with emphasis on industry oriented

programs for development of students as well as faculty. VCE is affiliated to

JNT University, Hyderabad, and is approved by the AICTE, New Delhi.Today

there are 10 departments and B.Tech program is offered in 7 branches. In

addition, institute offers MBA, MCA and M.Tech programmes. All the seven

branches are accredited by NBA (AICTE). Recenlty, it has been awarded the

‘The Top Performing College’ among 2000 colleges all over India in “The

Great Mind Challenge 2011” from IBM Company for the year 2011 at TGMC

for "Imparting Quality Technical Education & empowering students & faculty

members with necessary On-Demand skills". Top careers 360 magazine have

considered VCE as one of the leading colleges with AA++ Rating. In the

course of continued development towards excellence the VCE was credited

with the status of an Autonomous College by JNTU, Hyderabad in 2011. The

Department of Mechanical Engineering is established in the year 2006. The

department is equipped with well qualified & experienced faculty members,

and well established laboratories. The department is continuously striving to

achieve excellence in education, academic and industry oriented research as

well as consultancy work aiming service to the society. The department

already handled the DST, AICTE, CSIR and DRDO collaborated project and

few more are under process.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCEIn the present era, Mechanical Sciences are the backbone of the economy of

a nation. Due to globalization, there is a stiff competition in the industries for

designing and producing the quality products with reduced cost. There is a

strong motivation for optimizing the design and manufacturing process using

experiments with high precision equipments and computational techniques for

modeling the processes. Many a times, the products and processes are

simulated before the actual production starts. The present conference focuses

on the latest developments in the field of Mechanical Sciences applied to

design, thermal, manufacturing etc. The conference will provide an excellent

opportunity to share and disseminate knowledge in advanced computing

methods that may be applied in the modeling and optimization of Mechanical

Sciences. The major focus will be on industrial application of academic

knowledge. In addition to contributory papers, the conference aims at inviting

renowned experts for delivering keynote addresses/special lectures in the field

of Mechanical Sciences.

The conference keywords include but not limited to:

ABOUT THE VENUEThe conference venue is Vardhaman College of Engineering,VCE in abbreviated form. The

campus of VCE is on a sprawling 70 acres plot of land around 28 kilometers from the heart of

the city and 16 kilometers from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport. The institute has facilities

like first aid center, students' hostels, library, computer center, sports facilities, canteens etc.

There are many good hospitals in Hyderabad city that are located at about 25 kilometers from

the institute. The Hyderabad city is well connected to all major cities like Chennai, Kolkata,

New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and other metro cities through air, road, and rail. The institute

is located at about 37 kilometers from railway station. The weather is generally normal in

January reaching 15-18°C during night time. Hyderabad is worth visiting tourist places like

Charminar, Ramoji Film City, Golkonda Port, Hitech City, etc. Hyderabad is famous for pure

Pearls, Biryani, pure vegetarian fruits Karachi biscuits like many. It is worthy to visit

Hyderabad in a life to carry many memories.
