Conference Venue

Capital University of Science & Technology (CUST) Islamabad Pakistan was established in 1998 as Islamabad Campus of Mohammad Ali Jinnah University (MAJU) Karachi and achieved its recognition in the country and abroad by maintaining excellent academic standards. CUST is a comprehensive Institution which have faculties including Engineering, Medicines, Natural Sciences, Management, Computing, Humanities and Arts. Faculty of Engineering has three Departments: Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Civil Engineering.

The Department of Mechanical Engineering is dedicated to produce quality professional engineers with abilities to design, manage and operate mechanical Engineering systems. It is due to quality education that Capital University of Science and Technology has achieved the honor for being among top few Pakistani universities and the first among private institutions whose BS Mechanical Engineering Program is accredited on Outcome Based Assessment (OBA) by Pakistan Engineering Council. The department is also offering graduate programs in various specialization areas.

The Mechanical Engineering Department of CUST is well known for its Research and Development activities. The Department has established four research groups.

The Thermo-Fluids Research Group at the department of Mechanical Engineering at Capital University of Science and Technology involves a group of multidisciplinary researchers with a clear focus on both fundamental and applied research in thermo-fluids including aerodynamics, multiphase flows, HVAC, sprays and combustion, computational fluid dynamics, turbulence, renewable energy and thermal and hydraulic augmentation, phase change material, energy harvesting systems.

The Mechanics and Materials in Design group research in many aspects of mechanics, materials, bio-mechanics and engineering design. The research in Applied Mechanics is directed at many challenging dynamics and vibration problems associated with the design of modern engineering structures at all length scales – from atomic structures and MEMS devices to the largest man-made structures. The research into Materials is concerned with composites, superconductors, lattice structures and metallic foams, as well as material processing and joining. In Engineering Design, the focus is on development, validation and dissemination of advanced design methods for technical systems, in particular mechanical systems. In Biomechanics, engineering principles taken from the traditional disciplines of mechanics and materials are applied to biological systems, with applications in biology, biotechnology and medicine.

The Renewable Energy Research Group at the department of Mechanical Engineering at Capital University of Science and Technology is actively involved in multidisciplinary researchers with focus in clean energy including power from solar radiation, wind, biomass, and hydropower from river, ocean waves, and tides. Various aspect of photovoltaic power technology. Also, solar water heating and other thermal applications.

The Industrial and Manufacturing Research Group aims to tackle industrial and manufacturing problems to provide sustainable solutions. It includes the area of operations research, supply chain management, logistics, scheduling & planning and industrial scale optimization.
