Dr. Niravkumar J. Joshi is Physicist, having completed his doctorate at the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, India. He is Visiting Professor at Federal University of ABC, Brazil. He has postdoctoral experience from South Korea, Brazil, and at the University of California Berkeley, USA, where he developed selective and sensitive microsensors by MEMS techniques. His present research focuses on the synthesis and characterization of oxide nanostructures and 2D material-based gas sensors. Dr. Vinod Kushvaha earned his Dual Degree (B. Tech. + M. Tech.) from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) in Civil Engineering (Specialization in Structural Engineering), following that he earned his second master’s and a Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering (focused on Fracture Characterization of Composite Materials under Impact Loading) at Auburn University, Auburn, AL, USA. Presently, Vinod is working at the Indian Institute of Technology Jammu (IIT Jammu) as Assistant Professor in the Civil Engineering department.  Dr. Priyanka Madhushri is Internet of Things (Io T) Ideation Research Engineer at Stanley Black and Decker (SBD), Atlanta. Priyanka obtained her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from University of Alabama in Huntsville, AL, USA. Currently, she works with the innovation team and brings new ideas to a variety of projects. As Researcher, she provides Proof of Concept (POC) to various SBD teams and assists in the development of company’s software, hardware, and data analytics. Her research interests include the predictive analyses using machine learning, material modeling, Internet of things (Io T), mobile computing, etc. She has published in various engineering fields including materials journals where her work was focused on utilizing various machine learning algorithms to predict and explain mechanical behavior of advanced engineering materials.
