The 10th International Conference on Advances in Machinery, Material Science and Engineering Application (MMSE 2024) was held from 27 to 28 July, in Paris, France. MMSE 2024 was organized by ISAE-SUPMECA, France and Wuhan University, China, co-sponsored by Wuhan University of Science and Technology, China; Huazhong University of Sciences and Technology, China; Wuhan University of Technology, China; China University of Geosciences (Wuhan), China; Wuhan Textile University, China; National University of Singapore, Singapore; Washington University-St. Louis, USA; University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne, France; George Mason University, USA; Laboratoire Quartz, France, and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3), UK, among others. The focus of MMSE 2024 was on innovations, recent advances and emerging technology in mechanical engineering and advanced materials, in particular, on interdisciplinary applications and the sciences in engineering. The aim of the conference is to address current and future challenges, as well as promoting international exchange and cooperation, and we hope to spread communication and establish connections between international participants and members from various countries.

The two-day conference in Paris consisted of keynote speeches, scientific presentations, poster presentations and technical discussions. The proceedings of the conference contains 130 high-quality papers selected from 288 submissions, including international contributions from Asia and Europe, representing an acceptance rate of approximately 45%. These highlight the latest developments and research trends from areas including mechanical engineering; materials sciences and engineering; advanced manufacturing technology; applied mechanics, simulation and modelling; electronic and electrical engineering, automation, control; civil and hydraulic engineering; chemistry engineering and energy; and other closely related fields.

The accepted papers cover a broad range of topics, including mechanical design; advanced manufacturing technology; applied mechanics; fatigue and creep of materials; corrosion; coatings; electrical power; electronic techniques; energy storage; automation and control system design; robots; shock and vibration; simulation and modelling; machine vision; object detection; failure analysis; chemical engineering, marine engineering; structural engineering; electro-optical technology; autonomous driving technology; and emerging industrial applications and interdisciplinary technology. These contributions from participants were subjected to a rigorous peer review process to ensure academic rigor and innovation contributing to the advancement of knowledge.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the conference chairs: Prof. Emin Bayraktar, ISAE-SUPMECA/Paris, France; Prof. Seeram Ramakrishna, National University of Singapore, Singapore and Prof. Kamran Behdinan, University of Toronto, Canada, for their dedication in making this MMSE 2024 a success. The invited experts and scholars were: Prof. David Bassir, IRAMAT, UMR –7065, Université Technologique de Belfort-Montbéliard, France; Prof. Michael Todinov, Oxford Brookes University, UK; Dr. Qiang Xu, University of Huddersfield, UK; and Dr. Shaghayegh Bagheri, Department of Mechanical Engineering, George Mason University, USA, who joined us to present and share their latest findings. Thanks are also due to the MMSE reviewers and editors for their excellent work and valuable feedback. MMSE 2024 is also indebted to IOS Press for their assistance and support.

Finally, on behalf of this MMSE Committee, and indeed the whole MMSE team, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to all authors and participants for their contribution. We hope that this publication will serve as a valuable resource for researchers and engineers, and especially for young scientists worldwide.

The next, and 11th, International Conference on Advances in Machinery, Material Science and Engineering Application (MMSE 2025) will be held in Beijing, China from 26 to 27 July 2025, and we look forward to seeing you in Beijing next year.
