Overview of the Conference
This conference seeks to explore current trends and projected future changes regarding the dynamics of marine vessels and structures related to marine operations and generation of renewable energy. The main aim of this conference is to disseminate research and development activities concerning marine structures focused on innovative and practical solutions for energy efficiency and economy.
Kharagpur is the fifth largest city of West Bengal. It was chosen as the location for the first campus of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT). The IITs are the premier technical education institutes in India and are internationally recognized for their academic and technical excellence. IIT Kharagpur started in the old Hijli Detention Camp where some of India's great freedom fighters toiled and sacrificed their lives for Indian independence.The history of IIT Kharagpur is intimately linked with the history of the Hijli Detention Camp. This is possibly one of the very few Institutions anywhere in the world which started life in a prison house.
