Dr. Srijit Biswas is Senior Research Associate (SRA) under the Scientists' Pool Scheme of CSIR at the Engine Research Laboratory of the Mechanical Engineering Department, IIT Kanpur, India. He received his PhD degree from Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Agartala in 2022 and M-Tech degree in 2016 and B-Tech degree in 2014 from the same institution. After completion of his Ph.D. work, he joined as an Assistant Professor at the University Centre for Research and Development of Chandigarh University in 2022. He joined the Engine Research Laboratory of IIT Kanpur as a Project Scientist and joined the team the LCA team for the project entitled "Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of HEV, BEV and ICEV in India" and completed that project in a record time. For three years, he was awarded the Senior Research Associateship under the Scientists' Pool Scheme of CSIR, India, and joined the same Lab for further research. His areas of interest include two broader aspects: (a) Life Cycle Assessment and Techno-Economic Assessment of Transportation industries, including the Well-to-Pump (WTP) for the various fuels and also Cradle-to-Grave (CTG) for vehicles; (b) Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition Strategies with biofuels and Diesel/Biodiesel. He has published 17 high-impact factor journal papers, which have 223 citations. With an h-index of 10 and an i10-index of 10, his research underscores his significant and influential contributions to the field.

教授阿維納什·庫馬爾·阿卡瓦爾（Avinash Kumar Agarwal）是印度科技學院喬德布爾（IIT Jodhpur）的主任。他於1994年在印度斋浦尔的馬爾維亞區域工程學院獲得機械工程學士學位，並於1996年和1999年分別在印度科技學院德里（IIT Delhi）獲得能源碩士學位（MTech）和能源博士學位（PhD）。在1999年至2001年間，他在美國威斯康辛州麥迪遜的工程研究中心（ERC, UW, Madison）完成博士後研究，並於2001年返回印度，加入印度科技學院坎普爾（IIT Kanpur）。阿卡瓦爾教授在IIT坎普爾建立了一個最先進的「引擎研究實驗室」。他的研究興趣包括內燃機、燃燒、傳統和替代燃料、光學診斷、激光點火、HCCI、顆粒物和排放控制以及大口徑引擎。阿卡瓦爾教授已發表超過550篇經過同行評審的國際期刊和會議論文，編輯65本書籍和129章書籍，吸引了超過18300次的Scopus引用和超過27400次的Google Scholar引用。因其卓越貢獻，阿卡瓦爾教授獲得了由SERB頒發的Sir J C Bose國家獎學金（2019）、工程科學領域的著名Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar獎（2016）、物理科學的Rajib Goyal獎（2015）、NASI-信實工業白金禧年獎（2012）、INAE銀禧年青年工程師獎（2012）、INSA青年科學家獎（2007）、UICT青年科學家獎（2007）、INAE青年工程師獎（2005）、Devendra Shukla研究獎學金（2009-12）、Poonam和Prabhu Goyal捐贈講座教授（2013-16）、SBI捐贈講座教授（2018-21, 2022-25）等榮譽。他是TWAS、SAE、ASME、INAE、ISEES、RSC、NASI、WSSET、AAAS和美國燃燒學會的當選院士。

斯里吉特·比斯瓦斯（Srijit Biswas）博士是印度IIT坎普爾機械工程系引擎研究實驗室的高級研究助理（SRA），隸屬於CSIR的科學家池計劃。他於2022年在阿加爾塔拉國立技術學院的機械工程系獲得博士學位，並於2016年和2014年分別獲得該機構的碩士學位（M-Tech）和學士學位（B-Tech）。完成博士學位後，他於2022年加入昌迪加爾大學的研究與發展中心擔任助理教授。隨後，他作為項目科學家加入IIT坎普爾的引擎研究實驗室，並參與名為「印度HEV、BEV和ICEV的生命週期評估（LCA）和總擁有成本（TCO）」的項目，並在創紀錄的時間內完成該項目。在三年間，他獲得了CSIR印度科學家池計劃的高級研究助理獎，並繼續在同一實驗室進行進一步研究。他的研究興趣包括兩個更廣泛的方面：（a）交通行業的生命週期評估和技術經濟評估，包括各種燃料的從井到泵（WTP）和從搖籃到墳墓（CTG）評估；（b）使用生物燃料和柴油/生物柴油的反應性控制壓縮點火策略。他已發表17篇高影響因子的期刊論文，引用次數達223次。擁有10的h指數和10的i10指數，他的研究突顯了他在該領域的重要和有影響力的貢獻。
