In the third post in the 'MEET THE TEAM' series, we would like to introduce a senior member of the publication committee, Dr. Sharad Prabhu.
Dr. Prabhu did his Ph.D. on entropy generation in laminar micro-convective airflow. He has published four research papers in reputed international journal and conferences. He worked as a project research scientist at IIT Bombay till March 2021. His current research interests include entropy, information and evolution, stress concentration factors in orthotropic plates.
Dr. Prabhu has a total experience of more than 38 years. He developed simulation software for particle dynamics-based simulation of the behavior of red blood cells and parasites in blood flow in microchannels. He developed two new experimental set-ups at the Aircraft Structures Laboratory in IIT Bombay, for determination of shear center and approximate determination of Poisson’s ratio.
He has delivered lectures on role of uncertainty analysis in experiments and photo-elasticity technique of stress analysis. He has worked as an FRP design engineer, designing and testing more than 1000 equipment items in FRP. He set up a full-fledged testing facility for composite material testing. He was in-charge of software development facility at Intersil (India) for 17 years and was the system administrator for NCR-UNIX system, and LAN systems. He developed ‘Trans-literation’ software to process 1.6 crore interest warrants of farmers in Devanagari for Govt. of Maharashtra. He has familiarity with statistical quality control in IC chip manufacturing, positioning systems for factory automation, drum filter for sugar industry, brown stock washers and DSM screens for paper and pulp industry, sedimentation and classification equipment, and equipment for water treatment/effluent treatment plant. He has also done apprenticeship at HAL-Nasik and NAL-Bangalore. He is a life member of the Aeronautical Society of India and the National Society of Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Power.
