16 lakhs square feet and presenting a consummate
illustration of corporate contribution to society.
BIT is a well designed campus with state-of-the-art
facilities. It is an ideal, conducive, educational
sanctuary where one can fully focus on studies and
attain academic goals.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is well
equipped with qualified and experienced faculty
members
with
Industrial
and
Research
background. The Department has a team of 47
dedicated members of faculty, 10 with Ph.D. and 18
pursuing Ph.D. programmes. The department
offers three UG programmes (B.E. Mechanical,
Mechatronics
&
Automobile
Engg.),
three PG programmes (M.E. Engg. Design,
CAD/CAM & Industrial Safety Engineering) and
Ph.D. Programmes. B.E. Mechanical Engineering
programme have been accredited by NBA for
5 years. The Department has organized more than
65 short term training programmes, FDPs and
conferences in association with AICTE, ISTE, DRDO,
CSIR and TNSCST. Twelve research projects funded
by AICTE, DSIR, RPS and DRDO with total worth of
119 Lakhs have been taken up by the department.
The department is equipped with centre for
Industrial Automation and Mechatronics sponsored
by FESTO, Germany.
The BIT has a team of 367 dedicated members of
faculty, 64 with Ph.D. and 127 pursuing Ph.D.
programmes. It is currently offering 12 UG and 13
PG programmes and Ph.D. programmes in
Engineering, Technology, Software Engineering and
Management. The institute has been approved by
All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE),
New Delhi and is affiliated to Anna University,
Chennai. The institute has been accredited by the
Natioanl Assessment and Accreditation Council
(NAAC) with A Grade. It is also an ISO 9001:2008
certified institution.
The BIT had won the Mindlogix Infratec Limited
Silver Medal for the Best Overall Industrylinked Engineering College Award, the first ever
survey undertaken jointly by AICTE and
Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) for the year
2012. The institute had also won the National
Award for the Best Private Engineering College
for the year 2012 from ISTE, New Delhi.
PREAMBLE
Models describe our beliefs about how the world
functions. In mathematical modelling, we translate
those beliefs into the language of mathematics.
There is a large element of compromise in
mathematical modelling. The majority of
interacting systems in the real world are far too
complicated to model in their entirety. The two
divisions of mathematical modeling namely
deterministic / stochastic and mechanistic /
empirical represent extremes of a range of model
types. In between lay a whole spectrum of model
types. It is essential to develop regression based
mathematical models in many engineering research
applications. It facilitates test the effect of changes
in a system, decision making, etc.
