This book presents the select proceedings of the 1st International  13^th National Conference on Industrial Problems on Machines and Mechanism (IPRoMM 2020) and examines issues in the design, manufacture, and performance of mechanical and mechatronic elements and systems that are employed in modern machines and devices. The topics covered include robotics, industrial CAD/CAM systems, mechatronics, machinery associated with conventional and unconventional manufacturing systems, material handling and automated assembly, mechanical and electro-mechanical systems of modern machinery and equipment, micro-devices, compliant mechanisms, hybrid electric vehicle and electric vehicle mechanisms, acoustic and noise control. This book also discusses the recent advances in the integration of IoT and Industry 4.0 in mechanism and machines. The book will be a valuable reference for academicians, researchers, and professionals interested in the design and development of industrial machines.

Prof. C. Amarnath is a Mechanical Engineering Graduate of 1968. After earning his Ph.D in the area of Mechanism Synthesis and Design he joined IIT Bombay as a faculty member and has held several senior positions like Head of Dept and Dean at IITB. He was heading SINE, the Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Incubation Centre at IIT Bombay till his retirement from service in 2012. Prof. Amarnath has several publications to his credit and has established the Robotics Lab, the Textile Lab and the Innovation Centre at IITB.
