These are the proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Mechanical Engineering and Intelligent Systems (ICMEIS2012) held on August 25-26th 2012 in Beijing, China. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The 234 peer- reviewed papers are grouped into 10 chapters: Mechanics, Electromechanics and Electrotechnics; Electronics and Communication; Materials Engineering; Biomedical Manufacturing; Digital Manufacturing; Computational Simulation, Monitoring and Analysis in Manufacture; E-Technologies in Design and Manufacture; Information Technology in Product Realization; Intelligent and Robotic Systems; Agricultural Manufacturing

Artificial Intelligence in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering offers a unified platform for the dissemination of basic and applied knowledge on the integration of artificial intelligence within the realm of mechanical and industrial engineering. The book covers the tools and information needed to build successful careers and a source of knowledge for those working with AI within these domains. The book offers a systematic approach to explicate fundamentals as well as recent advances. It incorporates various case studies for major topics as well as numerous examples. It will also include real-time intelligent automation and associated supporting methodologies and techniques, and cover decision-support systems, as well as applications of Chaos Theory and Fractals. The book will give scientists, researchers, instructors, students, and practitioners the tools and information needed to build successful careers and to be an impetus to advancements in next-generation mechanical and industrial engineering domains.

The book presents a collection of 103 peer-reviewed articles from the Second International Conference on Intelligent Systems in Production Engineering and Maintenance (ISPEM 2018). The conference was organized by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and CAMT (Centre for Advanced Manufacturing Technologies), Wrocław University of Science and Technology and was held in Wrocław (Poland) on 17-18 September 2018. The conferences topics included the possibility of using a wide range of intelligent methods in production engineering, presenting and discussing new solutions for innovative plants, research findings and case studies demonstrating advances in production and maintenance from the point of view of Industry 4.0 - particularly applications of intelligent systems, methods and tools in production engineering, maintenance, logistics, quality management, information systems and product development. The book is divided into two parts: the first includes papers related to intelligent systems in production engineering, while the second is dedicated to special sessions focusing on: 1. Computer Aided methods in Production Engineering 2. Mining 4.0 and Intelligent Mining Transportation 3. Modelling and Simulation of Production Processes 4. Multi-Faceted Modelling of Networks and Processes 5. Product Design and Product Manufacturing in Industry 4.0 This book is an excellent source of information for scientists in the field of manufacturing engineering and for top managers in production enterprises.
