About the authors
Professor Constantine D. Rakopoulos is Head of the Thermal Engineering Department and Director of the I.C. Engines Laboratory at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece. He graduated with a Dipl.Ing. from the NTUA, but obtained his Ph.D. from the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, University of London, UK. Over the last 25 years he has been responsible for the development of engines research at the NTUA and has over 130 refereed papers in international journals and conferences. Professor Rakopoulos has guest-edited special issues in international journals and co-organised international conferences, including ECOS 2006.
Dr. Evangelos G. Giakoumis gained his Dr.Ing. from the School of Mechanical Engineering at the NTUA, before working as Area Manager at the After-Sales Department of the Peugeot Automobiles Distributor in Greece. He has been recently elected Lecturer at the Thermal Engineering Department of the School of Mechanical Engineering of the NTUA. Dr. Giakoumis' research interests include diesel engine experimental and simulation analysis under transient conditions, and second-law analysis of internal combustion engines.
