Research Areas

My key research interest lies in the areas of joining of dissimilar materials having varying properties by utilizing various welding (joining, brazing) processes. My other research interests are processing of polymers, metals, ceramics and composites by microwave energy. My studies are focussed on manufacturing, material characterization and mechanical performance analysis. I look forward for solving industrial problems in the area of aerospace, automobile, biomedical, defence etc. by experimental and finite element analysis.
