Multidisciplinary – Engineering (MLE)
Section Information
Multidisciplinary Engineering focuses on research that integrates multiple engineering fields, merges engineering with science or technology disciplines, or addresses complex real-world problems requiring cross-domain solutions. It supports studies that combine principles from mechanical, electrical, civil, chemical, biomedical, environmental, materials, and computer engineering to advance innovation and system performance.
Modern multidisciplinary engineering research includes smart systems, advanced materials, automation, robotics, energy technologies, sustainable engineering, computational modeling, nanotechnology, and engineering applications enhanced by data science and artificial intelligence. Cross-sector collaboration and integrative design approaches continue to drive progress across engineering domains.
This section publishes experimental studies, applied research, theoretical models, simulations, design methodologies, reviews, and case studies that demonstrate integrative engineering solutions, hybrid technologies, and interdisciplinary advancements in engineering science and practice.
