IAENG TRANSACT ENG SCI 2016

Two large international conferences on Advances in Engineering Sciences were held in Hong Kong, March 16–18, 2016, under the International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists (IMECS 2016), and in London, UK, 29 June – 1 July, 2016, under the World Congress on Engineering (WCE 2016) respectively. This volume contains 21 revised and extended research articles written by prominent researchers participating in the conferences. Topics covered include engineering mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, manufacturing engineering, industrial engineering, and industrial applications. The book offers state-of-the-art advances in engineering sciences and also serves as an excellent reference work for researchers and graduate students working with/on engineering sciences.
