Additively Manufactured Smart Materials and Structures

Dr. Rajkumar Velu is an Assistant Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology, Jammu. He held positions as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at the Digital Manufacturing and Design Centre (DManD), Singapore University of Technology and Design, and a Research Fellow at the Centre for Laser Aided Intelligent Manufacturing (CLAIM), University of Michigan. Dr Velu is also the recipient of the prestigious GATE scholarship. Dr. Velu's research focuses on engineering design, optimization, and the creation of innovative manufacturing techniques (additive manufacturing) and materials for designing and fabricating for biomedical and aerospace applications. Dr. Kalim Deshmukh is a senior researcher at the New Technologies Research Centre, University of West Bohemia in Pilsen, Czech Republic. He has over 20 years of research experience in nanomaterials and polymeric materials, with particular expertise in polymer blends, nanocomposites, and nanohybrids. His work emphasizes nanoscale dispersion, interfacial chemistry, and structure–property relationships that influence material performance in applications such as energy storage, gas sensing, biosensing, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, and high-k dielectrics. He has authored more than 200 publications, including original research articles and review papers, in leading international journals and with major publishers, such as the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), American Chemical Society (ACS), Elsevier, Wiley-VCH, Springer, and Taylor & Francis. In addition to his research contributions, he has edited or co-edited several books published by ACS, RSC, Elsevier, Springer, Wiley-VCH, and Wiley Scrivener. Inigo Flores Ituarte is a research professor and industry professional whose research focuses on optimization-driven design and manufacturing, engineering design, digital design, and advanced manufacturing. The overarching research goal of his research lab is how to engineer digital design and manufacturing systems that maximize product and process performance while improving cost-effectiveness, efficiency on energy and raw materials utilization, and minimize environmental impact. Dr. Anand Kumar Subramaniyan is Assistant Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Jammu. His research specialty is in the field of manufacturing engineering with a specialized focus on additive manufacturing.
