Author Information

Prof. Majid Ghassemi is Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the K. N. Toosi University of Technology; one of the most prestigious technical universities in Tehran, Iran. Professor Ghassemi has been recognized as Global Talent, also known as an Exceptional Talent, endorsed by the Royal Academy of Engineering of the United Kingdom, since 2015. He received that honor when he was acting as a Visiting Professor at the Centre for Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Research at the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. He teaches graduate and undergraduate courses and conducts research in the area of heat transfer and its application in bio and micro sensors, drug delivery, fuel cells,micro channels and alternative energy. He has over 20 years of academic and industrial experience and served as the President of the K. N. Toosi University of Technology from 2010 to 2013. Majid Kamvar works in the Department of Engineering, Parand Branch at Islamic Azad University in Parand, Iran Robert Steinberger-Wilckens is Professor for Fuel Cell and Hydrogen research in Chemical Engineering. He is director of the research Fuel Cell and Hydrogen group and the Centre for Doctoral Training Fuel Cells and their Fuels, which is run by the universities of Birmingham, Nottingham, and Loughborough, Imperial College, and University College of London. He works and has worked in many areas across the fields of renewable energies, energy efficiency, fuel cells, hydrogen production and distribution, as well as electric vehicles. Currently, his main areas of interest include Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, high temperature electrolysis (SOE) and reversible fuel cells (SOC) with methane synthesis, intermediate temperature polymer fuel cells, and market introduction of fuel cells and fuel cell vehicles. He has a total of over 200 publications in journals, books, and conference proceedings and is a regular peer reviewer for a large number of journals, as well as international funding programmes and publishing houses. He is member of the strategic advisory bodies for EPSRC, the EU Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking, and the European Fuel Cell Forum. Professor Steinberger-Wilckens coordinates the modules Conventional Energy and Renewable Energy and Energy Storage for 2nd Year students and the module Introduction to Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Technologies for 4th Year and CDT students.
