Author Information

Dr. Bhabani Shankar Das is Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Patna, specializing in hydraulics and water resources engineering. He obtained his B.Tech. degree from ITER, Bhubaneswar, and subsequently completed his M.Tech. and Ph.D. from NIT Rourkela. His research interests encompass fluvial hydraulics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), river confluence dynamics, and the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in water resources engineering. He has authored over 80 peer-reviewed research publications and has presented his work at several international conferences. Dr. Das is Active Reviewer for reputed peer-reviewed journals and has reviewed more than 120 research articles across multiple international journals. Since 2024, he has been serving as Member of the Editorial Board of Scientific Reports. He has also contributed significantly to the academic community through leadership roles at international conferences.  Dr. Joseph Tripura is Dedicated Assistant Professor specializing in water resources engineering (WRE) at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Patna. He holds a Ph.D. in water resources engineering, which has equipped him with advanced knowledge and expertise in the field. Additionally, he earned his master’s degree (M.Tech.) in water resources engineering, providing him with a solid foundation for his academic and research pursuits. With a good academic background, Dr. Tripura has made significant contributions to civil engineering, particularly in hydrology dynamics, flood risk modeling, and watershed management strategies. His research interests also encompass predictive analytics in hydrology and the application of IoT for water monitoring. In addition to his teaching responsibilities, Dr. Tripura has taken on various administrative roles, including Assistant Co-Coordinator for the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan (UBA) and Assistant Faculty In-Charge for the National Service Scheme (NSS) at NIT Hamirpur. Prof. K.K. Khatua is Distinguished Professor of civil engineering who was Former Dean (AIIR) at National Institute of Technology Rourkela, with over 30 years of teaching/research/administrative experiences in the field of water resources engineering, river hydraulics and hydrology, computational fluid mechanics. After completing his Ph.D. from NIT Rourkela and B. Tech. and master from VSSUT Burla, he has been continuously striving to enrich the research and development in the field of river hydraulics, computational fluid dynamics, and river and flood management. He has supervised 14 doctoral and 150 master and 50 graduate thesis mostly in the area of free surface flow and fluid dynamics. Prof Khatua is currently handling the charge of Coordinator and Head, Centre for Mahanadi Basin Management and Studies at NIT Rourkela (sponsored by Ministry of Jala Shakti, GoI). Professor Nigel Wright has held several senior academic leadership roles, including the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Enterprise) at Nottingham Trent University and Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research) at De Montfort University. He was also Professor at the University of Leeds and held dual appointments at the UNESCO-IHE and the Technical University of Delft, advancing education and research in river basin development and hydraulic engineering on a global scale. His academic foundation includes a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of Leeds and a B.Sc. (Hons) in mathematics from the University of Bristol. His extensive research has focused on flood resilience, sediment transport, urban water systems, and the impacts of climate change on hydrological processes. He has authored more than 140 peer-reviewed publications, including in high-impact journals such as Nature, Geophysical Research Letters, and Journal of Hydrology.
