Dr. J. M. Mallikarjuna is Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras. Dr. Mallikarjuna received his PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras. Prior to joining IIT Madras, he worked in different academic universities in various positions. Dr. Mallikarjuna mainly works in the field of internal combustion engines and alternative fuels for transportation. He was involved in developing a particle image velocimetry (PIV) facility at IIT Madras and used it effectively for the in-cylinder flow analysis of engines. He also works on the usage of hydrogen, biodiesel, and alcohols in IC engines to evaluate their performance and emission characteristics. His research work also covers advanced engine technologies like low-temperature combustion (LTC), homogeneous charge compression ignition engines (HCCI), gasoline direct engines (GDI), etc. To date, he has published more than 150 technical articles in international journals and conference proceedings.
