PRIME - 2021

The Department of Mechanical Engineering, NIT Patna has the great pleasure to welcome scientists and engineers from all over the world to attend the International conference on Progressive Research in Industrial &Mechanical Engineering (PRIME 2021) to be held on 05 07 August 2021.

The main objective of this international conference is to present the current research progresses in the area of Thermal & Fluids, Design, Mechatronics, Control and Robotics, Manufacturing and Industrial Engineering, Energy and Process Engineering, Material Science and Engineering, Structural Engineering, AutomobileEngineering, and other interdisciplinary and emerging areas. The conference seeks to provide a platform for an abroad blend of high-quality research articles in order to promote rapid communication and exchange between scientists, researchers, academicians, industrialists, engineers, and students. This conference will provide an opportunity to national and international experts and industry leaders to share their experiences and success stories. The delegates will be benefited with the scientific and technological issues addressed by recognized global experts who are up to date with the latest developments in their area and provide information on future research areas. PRIME 2021 will allow interactive panel discussions and sessions by renowned keynote speakers, plenary speeches, short lectures, oral paper, and poster presentations.

Participants can present their latest research works through oral presentations or poster presentations. Best paper presentation and best poster presentation awards will be awarded. The conference provides platform to publish original research articles, review articles, and feature articles. All the accepted papers will be published with SCOPUS indexing.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

PRIME-2021 will endeavor to publish high-quality original research and review papers, case studies, technical notes, and book reviews. All papers in the conference will have to undergo a rigorous peer-review process. Authors from India and abroad are invited to submit an abstract (250 words maximum) related to the theme of the conference through Easychair. After abstract acceptance (after the peer review process), authors are requested to submit the full-length paper. The submissions must include title, abstract, author affiliation with email address, and keywords (6 maximum). All submitted papers will be subjected to a similarity test (< 20% similarity) by Turnitin Software. Authors can present their paper via oral or poster presentation. In case of any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the organizing secretary.

ABOUT VENUE (NIT PATNA)

National Institute of Technology Patna is the 18th National Institute of Technology created by the Ministry of H.R.D. Government of India after rechristening the erstwhile Bihar College of Engineering Patna on 28. 01. 2004.NIT Patna marked its humble beginning in 1886 with the establishment of a pleaders survey training school which was subsequently promoted of Bihar College of Engineering Patna in 1924. This made this institute the 6th OldestEngineering Institute of India. The graduate-level curriculum was later elevated to the postgraduate level in1978. The institute is situated on the south bank of the holy river Ganges behind Gandhi Ghat, one of the most important and reverential places of Patna. The Gandhi Ghat is associated with the immersion of ashes of the father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi in the river Ganges. The campus has a picturesque river view with historic building presenting a spectacle of architectural delight and natural beauty. National Institute of Technology Patna has been declared as an Institute of National Importance and has been granted a fully Autonomous Status by MHRD, Government of India. The Institute has also been declared as a Centre of Excellence of imparting high-level education training, research, and development in science, engineering technology, and humanities. It is imparting high-quality education & values at UG (B. Tech), PG (M. Tech) & Ph.D. programmes through its experienced faculty well versed in their respective field of engineering and technology with well-equipped laboratories.

ABOUT MECHANICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT

The Department of Mechanical Engineering was established in 1952 and the M. Tech Program was started in1978. BCE was rechristened to the National Institute of Technology Patna on 28th January 2004 as an AutonomousInstitute under MHRD, Govt. of India. Initially, B. Tech program in Mechanical Engineering was started with an intake of 20 students, which has now become 125. Apart f rom UG programme, the department also offers M. Tech and doctoral programs in the areas of Thermal Engineering, Production Engineering, and Design. Presently, the department have more than 120 PhD research scholars. The Department is committed to providing quality teaching and research opportunities to its undergraduate (B. Tech), postgraduate (M. Tech), and doctoral students.
