Preface

The International Conference on Recent Innovations and Developments inMechanical Engineering (IC-RIDME 2018) was organized by Department ofMechanical Engineering, NIT Meghalaya, Shillong, India. The conference was heldduring November 08–10, 2018. A total of 386 scientific papers were received. Aftercareful review (each paper was reviewed by at least two reviewers), 218 paperswere accepted for the conference. During the three days of conference, there werethree keynote and five invited lectures delivered. The participants had fruitful sci-entific and technical discussions and interaction that made the conference a com-plete success. The overall response to the conference was quite encouraging.Among the presented papers, 144 papers were selected for inclusion in the pub-lished proceedings.

The proceeding contents cover entire mechanical engineering domain, and thetheme has been subdivided as follows:

1. Fluid Mechanics2. Renewable Energy3. Thermal Engineering4. Materials and Manufacturing5. Vibration and Acoustics6. Experimental Aerodynamics7. Turbo Machinery8. Robotics and Mechatronics

The contents of these proceedings reveal the breadth of current activities indifferent themes related to mechanical engineering. We hope they form a usefulstarting point for beginners as well as practitioners in this discipline.
