Professor Suripeddi Srinivas obtained his Masters (in Applied Mathematics) and Doctoral Degrees from the National Institute of Technology (Formerly Regional Engineering College) Warangal, India. Presently he is a Professor and Dean (Research) at VIT-AP University, Amaravati, India. Earlier, he has served as Senior Professor, Department of Mathematics, School of Advanced Sciences, VIT University, Vellore. He has nearly 30 years of teaching and research experience. His thrust area of research is mathematical modelling and fluid dynamics with emphasis on heat and mass transfer, Nanofluids, Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluid flows and Bio-fluid flows.  He has published over 110 research papers in National and International journals and his publications have received more than 3,300 citations.  His h-index is 26 and i10-Index is 50.  As a principal Investigator (PI) he has completed three major research projects sponsored by DRDO (Govt. of India), DST (Govt. of India) andNBHM (Govt. of India). He has also served as co-PI for several major research projects funded by various agencies. As of now, he has supervised 9 PhDs and 4 MPhil scholars. Several research students are actively working under his guidance. He has actively contributed to the research community in several capacities such as theses adjudicator for Ph.D/M.Phil degrees, reviewer to several notable international journals. He has attended and organized several workshops, FDPs and conferences both in India and abroad. Dr Badeti Satyanarayana has over 17 years of teaching experience, having worked in well-known institutions. He joined VIT University, Vellore and under the guidance of Prof V. Somaraju and Prof S Srinivas worked on his doctoral thesis on Geo Physical Fluid Dynamics. He has published several papers in National and International journals of repute. He has presented his work in various National and International conferences and symposiums both in India and abroad. Presently, he is working at VIT-AP University, Amaravati in the Department of Mathematics. His research interests are diverse include Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, MHD boundary layers, Perturbation theory and PDE’s. Dr J. Prakash is currently a Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Mechanical Engineering Science, Faculty of Engineering and The Built Environment, University of Johannesburg, Auckland Park Kingsway Campus, South Africa.
