Sixteen years later, he moved to TATA Technologies Ltd., where he has been involved in delivering engineering and design services to customers worldwide and has helped develop the companys innovative Global Engagement Model (GEM) delivery methodology. Hai Wang The following day, Hai Wang, Ph.D., professor of mechanical engineering at Stanford University, will present the second plenary session. Dr. Wangs research interests are in renewable energy conversion, catalysis and combustion. His current research focuses on theories and applications of nanoparticles and nanostructures for rechargeable batteries and supercapacitors, combustion simulations, and nanocatalysis. Wang is the author and coauthor of numerous papers for such publications as Combustion and Flame, Physical Review Letters, and Science magazine, and is the co-editor of Combustion Generated Fine Carbonaceous Particles. He is currently a member of the Frontiers in Energy and Proceedings of the Combustion Institute editorial boards and a former member of the editorial board for the International Journal of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion and Flame. Wangs presentation will take place from 830 a.m. to 1000 a.m. John Elbon The third Congress-Wide Plenary, to be held Thursday, Nov. 19 from 1130 a.m. to 1230 p.m., will be presented by John Elbon, vice president and general manager for Boeing Space Exploration.
