Dr Viswanathan received his MSc degree in Industrial Mathematical Modelling and PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering from Loughborough University. He held a postdoctoral position at the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Colorado on a collaborative research work with Iowa State University, Princeton University and the National Energy Technology Lab in the USA. He started as an Applications Engineer with COMSOL Multiphysics worked for two years, and then worked for Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India as a Technical Leader in the area of Fuel Systems CFD for five years. Dr Viswanathan has authored several papers, has published in prestigious journals including the Journal of Fluid Mechanics and Physics of Fluids, and has filed 8 patents with Daimler.
Dr Ronak Janani BEng, PhD completed her PhD focused on sol-gel chemistry and energy storage in 2019 at Sheffield Hallam University. With the use of her background in sol-gel chemistry, she entered the field of biomaterials with a focus on bioactive glass ceramics for healthcare applications. She later joined the iPSpine consortium to contribute to the development of smart biomaterials as part of a non-invasive therapy for disc degeneration.
Over the years, She also took part in several Innovate UK and UKRI projects (such as EnviroAsh, Enviroglass 2 and GRIFFIN) helping to address some of the challenges faced by UK’s Foundation Industries. In 2022, she became PI for the HiT OFCs project which aimed to advance the TRL of a developing gas-Raman instrument designed for emission monitoring in several UK Foundation Industries.
Dr Asquith graduated with a degree in Engineering Physics in 2001 and shortly after studied for an MPhil in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Sheffield University (2004).
In 2008, he did a PhD in the department of Materials Science, also at the University of Sheffield.
Both projects studied surface engineered aluminium with synchrotron diffraction to understand fatigue performance.
After finishing his studies, David worked as a Post-Doc. at the University of Sheffield on a variety of experimental mechanics projects in the Mechanical Engineering department.
David joined Sheffield Hallam University as a Lecturer in 2010 and now he is a Senior Lecturer in Aerospace Engineering and part of the Materials and Engineering Research Institute (MERI).
Praise Ishola is a MSc Big Data Analytics student in the Computing Department which is part of the Business, Technology and Engineering College and he is also work as the Web & Communications Assistant in Industry Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri).
He has worked in several different roles in Sheffield Hallam University, such as the Business, Technology and Engineering College Officer 2020, and President of the Student Union 2021 where he had the opportunity of attending Board of Governors, Academic Board, university management.
He was nominated for Leadership Award and Inclusivity & Diversity Award and won Inclusivity and Diversity Award for Inspirational Student Awards.
He has been awarded the Bronze Award, Silver Award and Gold Award of the Hallam Award.
He studied computer science as an undergraduate. Implemented several policies in the university and at national level, also ran several student campaigns.

Shruti Mandhani is a Research Fellow in Auxetic Materials at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute (MERI). Winner of the national 3-Minute-Thesis (3MT) competition in 2019. Writer, director and producer of a short film on ‘imposter syndrome’ and female role models in academia funded by UKRI for winning 3MT. Board member of Women of Science, a platform to celebrate women in STEM and improve access to relatable role models. Presenter of a series of video tutorials on ethics in science and effective science communication developed by Global Young Academy and the National Center for Science Communication (NaWik), funded by Volkswagen Stiftung. She has given various talks on public engagement in events like ‘PubhD’, ‘Barnsley Skeptics in the Pub’, and scientific conferences. Invited to ‘People Like Me’ session at Meadowhead School in Sheffield to help inspire secondary school girls to pick physics in their A-levels. Showcased research at ‘Explore!’, the flagship event of SHU during British Science Week, in 2018 and 2019.
She has a PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU).
She joined Sheffield Hallam University in 2016 and currently is a senior lecturer in Systems Engineering and course leader for MSc Advanced Engineering and Management in the Department of Engineering and Mathematics. Prior to joining Hallam, she was a visiting scholar at Georgia Institute of Technology, USA.
She also worked as a researcher at Centre of Innovation at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Singapore. Before that, she was a lecturer at Wuhan Institute of Technology, China, where she led the industrial training program of surface mount technology in collaboration with Foxconn Technology Group.
Francis Clegg graduated from Sheffield Hallam University in 1994 with a degree in Applied Chemistry and continued at the same establishment within MERI to complete a PhD in 1998 involving the physicochemical properties of organo-mineral interactions.
He is now a Principal Research Fellow and Head of Research Degrees at the Industry and Innovation Research Institute.
