ICMEM is a comprehensive conference covering all the various topics of Mechanical Engineering (Fluid and Solid Mechanics), Robotics, Aerospace, and Mechatronics. The aim of the ICMEM 2012 is to gather scholars from all over the world to present advances in the aforementioned fields and to foster an environment conducive to exchanging ideas and information. This conference will also provide a golden opportunity to develop new collaborations and meet experts on the fundamentals, applications, and products of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics. We believe inclusive and wide-ranging conferences such as ICMEM can have significant impacts by bringing together experts from the different and often separated fields of Mechanical Engineering (Fluid and Solid Mechanics) and Mechatronics, creating unique opportunities for collaborations and shaping new ideas for experts and researchers.
