Author Information

Prof. Arnab Chanda is an Associate Professor in the Centre for Biomedical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, and a joint faculty at the Department of Biomedical Engineering, AIIMS, Delhi. He is also the founder of a start-up company BIOFIT Technologies LLC, USA. He received his PhD from the University of Alabama, USA and has also been a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, USA. Dr. Chanda specializes in the area of Biomechanics and Biomaterials, especially in Tissue Mimicking (Artificial Tissues) and Characterization, finite element modeling (FEM), robotics and wearable device development, and entrepreneurship. He has received Young Researcher Award and Early Career Award from ASME, MHRD, and AO Spine International-Singapore, and also holds Top-Cited Paper Awards. He holds and has filed 10+ US and Indian Patents, authored several Books and 100+ articles in various international journals. He currently serves as the Associate Editor for the Journal of Appl. Biomaterials & Func. Materials, Associate Editor for the Frontiers in Medical Engineering, Editorial board member for Nature Scientific Reports, and as the guest editor for several journals such as Engineering Research Express. Dr. Shubham Gupta is a postdoctoral researcher at Queen Mary University of London, with academic training from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi. His research focuses on tribology, biomechanics, and contact mechanics, with particular emphasis on friction and wear in human–surface interactions. His scholarly work includes several peer-reviewed publications in international journals, contributing to a growing body of research on material behavior, surface interactions, and applied biomechanics. He is also the author of the book “Footwear Traction”, where he explored the fundamental principles governing grip, slip resistance, and safety in footwear systems. Building on this foundation, his research contributes to the understanding of frictional performance, durability, and comfort in footwear applications. Dr. Gupta’s research integrates experimental and analytical approaches to study complex contact phenomena under realistic loading and environmental conditions. Pramod Yadav is currently a Ph.D. research scholar at the Centre for Biomedical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi. His research centers on mechanical engineering, covering areas spanning tribology, fluid mechanics, and transport phenomena in complex systems. His work focuses on understanding material behavior, surface interactions, and flow-related effects under varying physical and environmental conditions. In the context of friction and wear in footwear, his work focuses the role of surface characteristics, interfacial conditions, and environmental factors on frictional performance and wear behavior. He has made contributions to peer-reviewed publications in international journals and conferences.
