Senior Lecturer | University of Sunderland
Biography:
Dr.Dhanesh G. Mohan is a Fellow of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (FIMMM), a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E) and a Chartered Engineer (C.Eng) with more than a decade of academic experience. As a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Technology at the University of Sunderland, United Kingdom, he oversees a research lab focusing on Net-Zero Manufacturing concepts, primarily exploring Additive Manufacturing, hybrid welding, and related fields.
He is serving as an associate editor for several prestigious journals such as Part E: Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering (Sage Publishing), International Journal on Interactive Design and Manufacturing (IJIDeM) (Springer), Welding International (Taylor and Francis) and an academic editor for Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, and Advances in Polymer Technology (Wiley, Hindawi). Dr. Mohan is also an editorial board member for many journals, including the Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, Taylor and Francis. In addition to his academic responsibilities, Dr. Mohan has been appointed as an Adjunct Professor at Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India and Chitkara University, Punjab, India.
Dr. Mohan's research focuses on big-area additive manufacturing and hybrid friction stir welding methods, including Laser-assisted FSW, Ultrasonic vibration-assisted FSW, Induction assisted FSW, and FSP. His research work explores the mechanical, metallurgical, corrosive, and microstructural properties of dissimilar metals and alloys such as steels, magnesium alloys, aluminium alloys, and high entropy alloys.
Dr. Mohan completed his postdoctoral training at the Institute of Materials Joining, Shandong University, Jinan, China, from 2019 to 2022. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Anna University, Chennai, India, in 2019, and his Master of Engineering (M.E) in Manufacturing Engineering from Government College of Technology, Coimbatore, India, in 2014. In addition, he holds a Master of Business Administration (M.B.A) degree in Logistics and Supply Chain Management from Bharathiar University, Coimbatore, India, in 2019.
