Summary

About Me I am an enthusiastic researcher looking for opportunities to work in the areas of alternate fuels combined with advanced combustion modes. The study of Internal Combustion Engines has always been a fascination for me and so I have tried to keep myself aligned as much as possible with the same, both in academics and work thus far. I am interested in working with projects focussing on the synergy of sustainable alternate fuels, both liquid and gaseous, and combustion modes that will result in ultra-low emission coupled with good fuel economy.
