This book presents the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Engineering, collecting the best papers from the event, which was held in Wrocław, Poland in June 2018. It includes contributions from researchers in computer engineering addressing the applied science and development of the industry and offering up-to-date information on the development of the key technologies in technology transfer. It is divided into the following thematic sections:• parametric and concurrent design,• advanced numerical simulations of physical systems,• integration of CAD/CAE systems for machine design,• presentation of professional CAD and CAE systems,• presentation of the modern methods of machine testing,• presentation of practical CAD/CAM/CAE applications:– designing and manufacturing of machines and technical systems,– durability prediction, repairs and retrofitting of power equipment,– strength and thermodynamic analyses of power equipment,– design and calculation of various types of load-carrying structures,– numerical methods of dimensioning materials handling and long-distance transport equipment (cranes, gantries, automotive, rail, air, space and other special vehicles and earth-moving machinery),• CAE integration problems.  The conference and its proceedings offer a major interdisciplinary forum for researchers and engineers in innovative studies and advances in this dynamic field.

This unique volume imparts practical information on the operation, maintenance, and modernization of heavy performance machines such as lignite mine machines, bucket wheel excavators, and spreaders. Problems of large scale machines (mega machines) are highly specific and not well recognized in the common mechanical engineering environment. Prof. Rusiński and his co-authors identify solutions that increase the durability of these machines as well as discuss methods of failure analysis and technical condition assessment procedures. "Surface Mining Machines: Problems in Maintenance and Modernization" stands as a much-needed guidebook for engineers facing the particular challenges of heavy performance machines and offers a distinct and interesting demonstration of scale-up issues for researchers and scientists from across the fields of machine design and mechanical engineering.

These proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Computer Aided Engineering present selected papers from the event, which was held in Polanica Zdrój, Poland, from June 22 to 25, 2016.
