About me:

Dr. Ashwini Kumar is currently working as an Associate Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies: Faridabad, India. Prior to joining the university, Dr. Kumar gained 13+ Years of experience holding different academic and Research responsibilities in different organizations. He has completed his research on the Optimal Thermohydraulic Performance of Three Sides Artificially Roughened Solar Air Heaters at the National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur. He received a Doctor of Philosophy from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur. He has authored several scientific articles in high Impact Journals and has also written five Books. His research contribution includes articles on Heat Transfer and Optimization Techniques. He received the Best Session Paper Award in International Conferences, 2016 in NIT Patna. Dr. Kumar is associated with many Universities, and along with that, he is an Editorial Board member of Reputed Journals and also a Reviewer of International journals (SCI & Scopus Index). Also looks forward to guiding many research scholars often developing his own interest in the field in which he is an expediter. He believes that Science, Engineering, and Technology are advancing at a fast pace, and the obsolescence of physical infrastructure, skills, and competence take place rapidly. He is keen on taking steps to improve the existing infrastructure, investment, and intellectual strength wherever they exist and network them so as to utilize them effectively and optimally for meeting the changing needs. Not only does he profess the values of Indian culture but also does he practice many of the fundamental principles of humanity and society. While dedicating himself to the cause of creating world-class infrastructure, he has also undertaken many community services in various parts of India out of his quest to contribute more to society.
