Abstract & Overview
International Scientific and Practical Conference on "Urgent Problems of Modern Mechanical Engineering" took place at Yurga Institute of Technology of National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University on December 17-18, 2015. The Proceedings contain the selected scientific reports submitted to the Conference. The scientific reports published in these Proceedings have been revised and approved by the editorial team of the Conference. All of the reports exhibit clear, concise, and precise expositions that appeal to a broad international readership interested in mechanical engineering, welding, metallurgy, material science, computer-aided manufacturing. The reports present original ideas or results of general significance supported by clear reasoning and compelling evidence, and employ methods, theories and practices relevant to the research. The authors state clearly the questions and the significance of their research to theory and practice and describe how the research contributes to new knowledge; and provide tables and figures that meaningfully add to the narrative. Organizing Committee of the Conference thank all the participants of the Conference for their fruitful work and personal contribution to the development of these Conference Proceedings. Dmitry A. Chinakhov, PhD Conference Convenor Vice-Chancellor, Yurga Institute of Technology of National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University
