Biography
R S Srivastava has been working in the field of Fluid Mechanics for a considerable period of time. He has by now published more than 70 research papers on flow through curved tubes, shock wave diffraction, heat transfer, flow through rotating pipes and non-Newtonian fluids. His work has received international recognition and has been referred widely and profusely in international journals and books by very eminent persons in the area. His work on flow through curved pipes has found application in most of the disciplines in Science, Engineering and Medicine. His prediction of position of maximum axial velocity in curved pipes for different parameters of Mc Conalogue has tallied extremely well with ultrasound measurements. He has written two books: i) “Turbulence (Pipe Flows)” ii) “Interaction of Shock Waves”. He has worked with Prof. Sir James Lighthill, F R S, Prof. I I Glass and Prof. Akira Sakurai at Imperial College, London, Institute for Aerospace Studies, Toronto, Tokyo Denki University, Tokyo, respectively. He has delivered several lectures at many international symposia.
