Preface I
Dear Authors and Esteemed Participants,
It is with immense satisfaction that we write the foreword to the proceedings
of the Third International Conference on Computing in Mechanical Engineering,
sponsored by the All India Council for Technical Education. The conference was
hosted virtually by the SCMS School of Engineering and Technology, Cochin, and
witnessed an extravagant display of computational techniques and their application
in mechanical and related engineering.
ICCME was launched in 2015, with a vision to become a regular global plat-
form for computing enthusiasts from academia and industry to interact, discuss,
and disseminate their ideas and views on computational methods. After the second
edition of ICCME in 2017, which was a grand success with participants from around
the globe, it took a long four years to showcase the eminence of this prestigious
event since the world was busy fighting the pandemic. ICCME, relaunched in 2021
under the sponsorship of the All India Council for Technical Education, partnering
with Springer Publications, brought the best experience of computational analysis
in mechanical engineering to its participants. Keynote lectures by the most eminent
computational experts from academia discussed the theory of novel computing tech-
niques, methods, and their applications, while a hands-on experience on computing
tools was provided by the expert team from Cadence—Numeca, Belgium. We were
fortunate enough to have Prof. Alam Md. Mahbub and Prof. Bale V. Reddy with us
for ICCME from the very beginning of the conference in 2015.
We conclude with a positive note and hope to meet all our organizers, panelists,
speakers, delegates, and sponsors in person during the next edition of ICCME.

Preface II
This conference proceedings volume contains the selected contributions to
computing in mechanical engineering presented at ICCME’21—The Third Inter-
national Conference on Computing in Mechanical Engineering, a virtual event held
during September 22–24, 2021, hosted by the SCMS School of Engineering and
Technology, Ernakulam, India.
Computers manifest themselves as a tool for designing, analyzing, and experi-
menting the scientific processes with much ease and accuracy. The applications of
computers in the field of mechanical engineering extended the horizons of research
and development. Computational skills when used effectively with scientific experi-
ments and sound theoretical knowledge can tremendously increase research output.
Processes such as fluid flow, solidification and melting, combustion in the IC engines,
and many other complex and fast physical phenomena can be visualized, and every
minute aspect of these processes can be better comprehended through computational
techniques.
The application of computing is not limited to computational fluid dynamics
(CFD), but it is hard to find an area in mechanical engineering where computation
is not used as a tool for enhancing productivity. While CFD can be used for visu-
alizing and predicting flow characteristics, computer-aided designing is used in the
design and installation phase, MATLAB for optimizing designs and processes, CNC
programming for controlling machines and processes, and BIM in the decommis-
sioning phase. High-performance computing employing cluster, blade, and cloud
environments has indeed paved the way for the most convenient and state-of-the-art

About the Conference
Third International Conference on Computing
in Mechanical Engineering 2021 (ICCME’21)
The International Conference on Computing in Mechanical Engineering
(ICCME’21) focuses on the applications of computation and simulation techniques
in mechanical engineering and related fields. The conference provides a platform for
all computing enthusiasts from academia and industry to discuss and disseminate
their ideas and findings.
ICCME’21 invited contributions in thirteen tracks, highlighting computing as a
tool for analysis in core mechanical engineering research. From the one hundred
and twenty-seven extended abstracts received, sixty-five papers were selected and
presented at the conference. From the presented papers, twenty eight were selected
and included in this conference proceedings. The proceedings also includes the
written versions of the plenary talk delivered during the conference. The selected
papers cover a wide range of computing aspects in mechanical engineering, espe-
cially in fluid flow and heat transfer, material science, manufacturing, and industrial
engineering.
