About the Author :
Dr. A. Shukla did his masters in Physics from University of Lucknow and completed his Ph.D. from IIT Kharagpur in January 2005. He did his postdoctoral research work at some of the international premier institutes across the globe, namely at Institute of Physics Bhubaneswar (Department of Atomic Energy, Govt. of India), University of North Carolina Chapel Hill USA, University of Rome/Gran Sasso National Laboratory, Italy and Physical Research Laboratory Ahmedabad (Department of Space, Govt. of India). He is currently working as an Associate Professor in Physics at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT) (set up through an Act of Parliament by the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, as an "Institute of National Importance" on the lines of IITs). His research interests include Nuclear physics and Physics of renewable energy resources. He has published more than hundred research papers in various International Journals and in various International and National conference proceedings. He has delivered invited talks at various national and international institutes. Currently he is having several national as well as international projects and active research collaborations from India and abroad on the topics of his research interests. Dr. Atul Sharma did M. Phil. In Energy & Environment (August-1998) and Ph.D. from School of Energy and Environmental Studies, Devi Ahilya University, Indore (M.P.), India. Afterwards he worked as a Scientific Officer at Regional Testing Centre Cum Technical Backup Unit for Solar Thermal Devices, at the School of Energy & Environmental Studies, Devi Ahilya University, Indore funded by Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources, New Delhi, Govt. of India and later aa Research Assistant at Solar Thermal Research Center, New & Renewable Energy Research Department at Korea Institute of Energy Research, Daejon, South Korea (1st April 2004 – 31st May 2005). Dr. Sharma also worked as a Visiting Professor at Department of Mechanical Engineering, Kun Shan University, Tainan, Taiwan, R.O.C (1st August 2005 -- 30th June 2009). Dr. Sharma is currently working as an Associate Professor at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT) which has been set up by the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, Govt. of India. He has published forty four research papers in various International Journals. Sixty-seven research papers published in various International and National conferences. He also published several patents related to the PCMs technology in Taiwan region only. He is working on the developments and applications of Phase Change Materials, Green Building, Solar Water Heating System, Solar Air Heating System, Solar Drying Systems etc. Dr. Sharma is conducting research at the Non-Conventional Energy Laboratory (NCEL), RGIPT and currently engaged with three Department of Science & Technology (DST), New Delhi sponsored projects at his lab. Further, he served as an editorial board member and reviewer for many national and international journals, project reports and book chapters.
