P. A. Lakshminarayanan studied at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras for his B.Tech., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees. He worked at the Loughborough University of Technology and Kirloskar Oil Engines Ltd for 25 years, before moving to Ashok Leyland in 2002 to head the Engine R&D for about nine years. From 2011 to 2019, he was the Chief Technical Officer and the Technical Adviser at Simpson and Co. Ltd. Currently, he is a visiting professor at IIT Kanpur. He has developed eight diesel and CNG engine platforms and 150 engine types commercially successful in efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Two engine designs received prizes from the Institute of Directors (India). Twelve ideas were patented during the development of engines over 40 years. He has authored 55 research papers in journals and conferences of international repute. Four of them received prizes for integrity and quality of content from the SAE (Arch Colwell Award), Combustion Society (India), AVL (Graz), and AVL (India) in 1983, 1993, 2005, and 2011, respectively. He was elected to the fellowships of SAE (2009), INAE (2013), and ISEES (2018).

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.
