This volume of the journal contains papers which were presented at the international conference on green trends in mechanical engineering sciences (icgtmes) that was held on october 3-5, 2018, karnataka, india. The focus of the conference was to open a new paradigm to deliberate on eco-friendly and robust design, use of materials with less environmental impact, use of fewer materials, optimal utilization of resources during manufacturing processes. We hope that the presented papers will be interesting and useful for many specialists in the field of mechanical engineering and materials science.
