Asim Tewari is a Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and a faculty member of the Center for Machine Intelligence and Data Science (C-MInDS) at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai. He graduated with a B. Tech degree from IIT Kanpur, followed by an M.S. and Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta. He has over two decades of work experience working in both corporate R&D and National research laboratories. His area of research is in mathematical models for microstructural-mechanics and applied machine learning. He has over 100 international journal & conference publications and ten international and four Indian patents. He has graduated thirteen Ph.D. students and more than fifty M.S. students. Over the last decade, he has secured research funding of over 15 million USD. At IIT Bombay, he has established several state-of-the-art facilities, including Advanced Machining Excellence Cell, fiber composite research laboratory, 4D x-ray microscopy laboratory, an experimental lab for thermo-mechanical simulation, and a Nano-characterization texture laboratory. He has also established a Cyber-Physical Systems and Data Analytics research group. The group works in smart manufacturing, machine-learning, data-analytics, and IoT for various sectors, including manufacturing, transportation, and defense. The group has developed end-to-end solutions for digital factories with indigenous industrial IoT devices along with the cloud networking and Data Analytics backend. The group is also involved in video comprehension based on Deep learning for inference and surveillance. The group offers executive training courses on Machine Learning and Deep Learning to industry and has many industry projects to its credit.
