Arindam Banerjee, Lehigh's Paul B. Reinhold Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics and chair of the MEM department, has been honored as an Associate Editor of the Year (2023) by the Journal of Fluids Engineering, an ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) publication.  

Banerjee, who has served in the role since 2018 and is also an ASME Fellow, was recognized for his "distinguished service to our community and to your colleagues in the Society and for outstanding contributions to ensuring the quality and the societal impact of the Journal of Fluids Engineering."

The journal disseminates technical information in fluid mechanics, a branch of physics concerned with the forces on liquids, gases, and plasmas. The publication is one of 35 journal titles published by ASME, an organization established in 1880 to promote collaboration, knowledge sharing, and skill development across all engineering disciplines. ASME has over 75,000 members hailing from more than 130 countries.

At Lehigh, Banerjee conducts research in multi-scale thermo-fluid-dynamics with emphasis on energy systems and biological systems. He is also the subject editor for the Elsevier journal Renewable Energy, managing the offshore renewable energy portfolio.
