Congratulations to Binoy Debnath, Zahra Pourfarash and of course Knudsen’s own Bhairavsingh Ghorpade for your paper titled “Integrating Reverse Engineering and Life Expectancy Analysis in the Lifecycle Management of a Mechanical Component” being selected as the Best Track Paper Runner-Up in the Modeling & Simulation Division at IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2025. We are truly excited to see where this research leads. Thanks so much to Dr. Shivakumar Raman for being such a great supporter and collaborator with the Knudsen Institute and Michael Morford over the years.
