About the editors

Dipankar Deb completed his PhD at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, with Prof. Gang Tao who is an IEEE Fellow and Professor at the Department of ECE in 2007. In 2017, Dr Deb was elected an IEEE Senior Member. He has previously served as a Lead Engineer at GE Global Research Bengaluru (2012–2015) and as an Assistant Professor in EE, IIT Guwahati (2010–2012). Currently, he is a Professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Institute of Infrastructure Technology Research and Management. As a Student Start-up and Innovation Project Coordinator at IITRAM, he mentors students on how to establish and secure Intellectual Property Rights (Patents). He has published 15 Science Citation indexed Journal papers and hols 5 granted US patents.

Ambesh Dixit (Ph.D., 2010, Wayne State University MI, USA) has substantial experience in computational and experimental condensed matter physics with a special emphasis on the design and development of materials for energy applications. He is currently working on the development of new materials for energy conversion and storage. He has authored several research publications in international journal and in conference proceedings.

Laltu Chandra (Ph.D., 2005, University of Karlsruhe, Germany) has extensive experience in experimental and numerical heat transfer and fluid mechanics. His chief interests are in the design, development and evaluation of nuclear and concentrated solar thermal sub-systems. Recently, he has developed an open volumetric air receiver-based solar convective furnace system for metal processing. He has authored several research publications in international journals, as book chapters, and in conference proceedings.
