Dr Debajyoti Bhaduri is a Lecturer in High-Value Manufacturing within the Cardiff School of Engineering. His research interest broadly centres on the advanced machining / grinding, laser based micro-manufacturing and metal additive manufacturing (AM), hybrid manufacturing technologies, e.g. ultrasonic assisted machining / grinding, surface engineering via PVD coating, laser texturing, polishing etc.

Dr Bhaduri has been involved in several European projects over the past five years that focussed on development and implementation of hybrid manufacturing process chains incorporating various pre- and post-processing steps of metallic AM parts. During his PhD, he developed a novel hybrid ultrasonic assisted creep feed grinding process for machining of advanced aerospace alloys such as Inconel 718, CMSX-4 and gamma titanium aluminide. His research expertise also encompasses evaluation of surface integrity of machined parts via roughness, microhardness, microstructure and different microscopic and spectroscopic (EDS, WDS, EMPA, SIMS, XPS, OES and XRD) analysis.

Research Interests:

Dr Debajyoti Bhaduri is currently undertaking research in the following areas:

Circular Hubrid Manufacturing (CHM) - The research focuses on the development of a novel circular manufacturing route for the production of sustainable powders for metal additive manufacturing (AM). The process enables synergistic study on the sustainability of AM processes and their environmental impact from the life-cycle perspective. The research strategy aligns with the UK Government's 'Net Zero' target, with the aim to dramatically reduce the carbon footprint of the current AM powder production techniques and to foster recycle of materials to produce high-value AM parts.

Development of Hybrid Manufacturing Process Chains - The research involves AM process optimisation for new metallic materials, followed by post-processing of the AM parts via laser-based surace engineering techniques, such as laser polishing and laser surface texturing, to improve the built parts' surface integrity.

Surface texturing via mechanical micromilling - This is a complementary surface engineering technique to the laser surface texturing (LST). Comparative surface integrity analyses are undertaken on the parts, textured via mechanical micromilling and LST.

Machining of metal-composites stacks - The effects of single-shot milling of metal-compasite (e.g. Al/CFRP) stacks are investigated on the workpeices' surface inegrity and cutting tool wear.
