Dr. Jithin S.

Dr. Jithin completed his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. After which, he was selected for the Institute Post Doctoral Fellowship of IIT Bombay and went on to pursue postdoctoral research in the same lab. He did his M.Tech. from National Institute of Technology Calicut and B.Tech. from College of Engineering Trivandrum.

Research interests of Dr. Jithin include non-conventional machining, surface texturing, surface metrology, analytical modeling, finite element modeling, and micro-machining. His Ph.D. research was in the domain of modeling and experimental analysis of stochastic surface topographies generated using electrical discharge texturing and his work was recommended by his defense committee for an excellent Ph.D. thesis award. This work has made him one of the few expert researchers in the field of electrical discharge texturing.

Dr. Jithin has various international journal publications to his credit, many of which are in high-impact international journals in the field of manufacturing. He has also presented his research work at numerous international conferences and has published book chapters also. Currently, he is writing a monograph in the domain of simulations in electrical discharge machining.
