About

I am a Research Scholar, pursuing my PhD in the Department of Mechanical, Materials and Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Dharwad. My area of research is Hybrid Metal Additive Manufacturing for the fabrication of Bimetallic and Functionally Gradient Materials. I have also worked on 3D printing of polymer-based composite materials.
