Dr. Sujit Sharma currently working as an Assistant Manager at Aliaxis Research and Technology Centre Asia (ARTCA). He pursued Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from the prestigious institution of the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India. He completed his Bachelor of Technology in Chemical Engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Durgapur, India in 2015. He acquired a Master of Technology in Rubber Technology from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India, in 2018. He completed vocational training from the Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (Haldia Refinery), India, and M-Tech. project under the joint collaboration of the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and ALP Nishikawa, Lalru, Punjab.

As a doctoral fellow, he worked on “CFD modeling for predicting the flow behavior of filled EPDM rubber compound during extrusion: An approach to optimize the die design for complex automotive profiles”, under the close supervision of Professor Santanu Chattopadhyay, Former Head of Rubber Technology Centre & Professor Arghya Deb, Associate Dean in Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India. His accomplishments include one Paper in the Journal of Manufacturing Processes and two Papers in the Chemical Engineering Journal as a primary author as well as seven Papers as a co-author.

 

He has performed a study on the overall deformation that happens to the extrudate profile after coming out from the die during the manufacturing of such products. Further, he simulated the die according to the desired shape of the product. Not only does this reduce the manufacturing cost and the die development cycle but also helps in reducing energy consumption as well as the environmental impact. â€‹Design and simulation of elastomeric profiles and shaping processes benefit from a change from experimental trial-and-error to true quantitative predictive capability. He has helped reduce manufacturing costs and has decreased the die development cycle, for which he has received numerous accolades globally.
