He has applied AI/ML algorithms in the field of materials and alloy design and process metallurgy. He will deliver a lecture on AI/ML-based algorithms application in alloy design at E-MRS Fall 2021. In March 2021, he received the best poster award for his AI/ML-based work at US NSF-JST (Japan) joint workshop on Materials Informatics and Quantum Computing. He has published over 30 publications, including two book chapters, journal articles, and peer-reviewed international conference proceedings. He has developed a software for simulating nanoindentation through ML and is currently working on patenting his software and is in direct communication with a company interested in licensing it. He has served as an editor and on the reviewer board of academic journals and has reviewed articles for 16 international journals on multi-disciplinary topics.

Dr. Bimal Kumar Jha, Former Executive Director, Research and Development Centre for Iron &Steel, SAIL, Ranchi, graduated in Metallurgical Engineering from University of Roorkee in 1978 with the unique distinction of being awarded with all the five medals of the Metallurgical Engineering Department. He joined RDCIS, SAIL, in 1980 after completing MTech at IIT Kanpur. He completed his PhD on TRIP Steels from University of Roorkee in 1996. Dr. Jha in his various capacities in RDCIS spearheaded product development and commercialization activities of SAIL from 2005 to 2015. Dr Jha as head of RDCIS made outstanding contribution toward formulation of companywide R&D Master Plan. Under his leadership, a process was evolved to identify and capture R&D expenditure in SAIL plants/units. As a Steel Industry-Academia Interface (SIAI) convener, he has been involved in formation of Steel Research and Technology Mission of India (SRTMI) and has identified major technology developments of National importance in Steel Sector. His keen interest in research and development is amply manifested through more than 140 numbers of publications in the journals of national and international repute and filing of 45 patents to his credit. In 2015, Dr. B.K. Jha was conferred the National Metallurgist Award (Industry) by Ministry of Steel, the highest honor in India for the metallurgical profession. He has also received the prestigious Metallurgist of the Year Award in 2002 from Ministry of Steel and O.P. Jindal Gold Medal in 2014 from Indian Institute of Metals (IIM). He was a visiting professor in IIT, Roorkee, before joining National Institute of Foundry and Forge Technology (NIFFT), Ranchi, India, as a professor.
