I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Engineering at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET).
LEARNER|TEACHER|RESEARCHER
With demonstrated teaching and research background, I am deeply intrigued by the realms of Thermodynamics, Energy and Exergy Efficiency, and Applied Machine Learning. I lead the Energy Systems and Modeling (EnSyM) Research Group, which is engaged in diverse and impactful research projects, including:
Cold energy recovery from LNG
Geothermal energy utilization
Energy storage
Our research group welcomes enthusiastic and motivated graduate and undergraduate students who are passionate about contributing to cutting-edge and meaningful research.
Our research paper titled "Thermodynamic analysis and optimisation of a novel transcritical CO2 cycle" has been published on Energy Conversion and Management, which is one of the top journals in the field of energy (Impact Factor : 11.533, Cite Score: 18). The full paper can be accessed here.
Our project on braille pdf reader for visually imapired earned Champion title of Engineering Innovation Challenge-2018 which was organized by Institute of Engineers, Singapore. In this video, I am sharing our feelings after the result announcement. Details of the project can be found here.
The BUET SPE Student Chapter successfully organized a three-day workshop on Python programming. During this workshop, I had the privilege of presenting fundamental concepts of Python programming, along with an in-depth exploration of essential modules, such as numpy, scipy, pandas and matplotlib, were demonstrated for purposes of equation solving, data visualization, and curve fitting.
I am honored to have been invited to deliver three lectures on energy-related topics during the foundation training of BPC officers at Bangladesh Petroleum Institute (BPI). The training provided a wonderful platform to discuss energy overview, resources, and global and Bangladesh energy outlook. Lecture materials can be accessed here.
I was invited to speak at a session hosted by IMechE Student Chapter of Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology (AUST) on 30 June, 2022. To exchange ideas for the freshmen's future journey with them was a lovely experience.
In collaboration with Onnorokom Pathshala, a non profit educational platform, I have created some tutorials on the topics of introductory modern physics including: special theory of relativity, photo electric effect, Compton effect etc for Bengali speaking students of class 11-12. The full playlist can be found here.
