Now and working days in should post baccalaureate at IIT Palakkad. During my first postdoc at I ate Bhubaneswar. I have worked. I interpret a voice. Under Hybrid metal matrix composites. Now in my second post. And exploring mechanical study of the polymer metal friction state welded joints. Thank you.

Alright, Dr. Venkatesh, so you completed your B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering with a strong percentage. Could you share what led you from your undergraduate studies into your current path in academia?

So you moved on to a master's in Mechanical Engineering at JNPU after your bachelor's—were there any particular research interests or projects during your post-grad that shaped your academic direction?

Dr. Venkatesh, thinking back to your time teaching at GMR Institute of Technology, what was one foundational concept in mechanical engineering you especially enjoyed explaining to students in the classroom?

Alright, Dr. Venkatesh, you mentioned teaching and research experiences across several institutes, plus work on powder metallurgy composites and hybrid metal matrix materials. Thinking about your time in the classroom, what’s one specific topic or experiment from mechanical engineering labs that you found really engaged your students?

Uh, if you are offering this teaching. I will establish a new laboratories. Regarding to. Advanced manufacturing techniques. And I have to install. I will install new. Mechanical characterization machines. Like mechanical analyzer. Dial Dynamic mechanical analyzer. And ultrasonic. UPM machine in bed. Hardness testing, Mission creep testing machine. And different types of furnace. Inside the laboratories. And I will make the students how to fabricate a metal matrix composite by using these powder methods techniques. And after the fabrication. I will explain how. This composite composite. Or will undergo a different loading conditions at different frequencies, and I will tell the student how to perform the characterization techniques and mechanical property characterizations.

Dr. Venkatesh, I noticed your dissertation was on the mechanical and tribological study of Al-SiC-Kaolin composites fabricated by powder metallurgy. Can you walk me through a time you had to break down concepts from that research for undergraduate students or a non-specialist audience?

Yes, Sir. I have worked on metal matrix composites fabricated through powder metallurgy technique.

In the undergraduate studies. I will explain what is the. Concept behind this Metternatus composite. And the how to fabricate this?

Right, so you worked on metal matrix composites using powder metallurgy. But when you had to explain that process

In the undergraduate studies. I will explain what is the. Concept behind this Metternatus composite. And the how to fabricate this? You're asking how to fabricate OK in case of powder metallurgy jet? Technique. Initially we have to take a. Compowder like matrix powder and. Reinforcements. And we have to mix these two powders. As a predetermined. Proportion then we have to place this powder inside your ball mill and we have to rotate that ball mill at different specific. RPMS and. Difficult time after that. What are the composite powder that is up? Learn from the development we have to play. Steel compacted die. In my experiment I have used H13 steel dye.

What are the composite powder that is up? Learn from the development we have to play. Steel compacted die. In my experiment I have used H13 steel dye. After the ball milling water, the powder we obtained that is powder inside the. And by using. Some pressure. They have compacted the samples. After. The compaction. What are the sample that is obtained? This is called a green counter. That specimen we have subjected to different centering techniques.

What are the sample that is obtained? This is called a green counter. That specimen we have subjected to different centering techniques. Like a conventional sintering, microbiome versus state sintering, and spark plasma. Centering Fitness. So after this center and techniques we have. We have extracted the specimen as per ASTM standards subjected to different characterizations.

You’ve described guiding students through hands-on fabrication and characterization, which is good. But could you give a concrete example of a student project you supervised that led to a peer-reviewed publication, or perhaps one that’s currently under review? How did you help the student navigate that process?

Okay, so you explained the actual powder mixing and compaction to undergrads, including specifying matrix and reinforcement selection, ball milling, and use of H13 steel dies. When you’re thinking about your research in metal matrix composites, where do you see the most fundable directions for the next three years, and which grants or agencies would you target to support that work?

Okay, so you walk students through the matrix and reinforcement selection, ball milling, compaction with an H13 steel die, and sintering—that’s hands-on. Now, thinking about institutional research productivity, given your background with powder metallurgy and hybrid composites, where do you see the most fundable research directions in the next few years? What specific grants or industry partnerships would you pursue to sustain your lab’s activities?

Sir, whatever. The metal matrix composite we are fabricating. That is extremely. In high quantity those are using. Aerospace applications That aerospace Aerospace brief disk application. So if you are giving an opportunity in your institution. So I will write the different proposals like an RF proposals. And earlier research grant. Under different fellowships are there. I will write the different uh. Proposals and I will submit. I will. Acquired the grain and I will install the new laboratories. Then you institute.

Sir, whatever. The metal matrix composite we are fabricating. That is extremely. In high quantity those are using. Aerospace applications That aerospace Aerospace brief disk application.

Sir, whatever. The metal matrix composite we are fabricating. That is extremely. In high quantity those are using. Aerospace applications That aerospace Aerospace brief disk application. So if you are giving an opportunity in your institution. So I will write the different proposals like an RF proposals. And earlier research grant. Under different fellowships are there. I will write the different uh. Proposals and I will submit. I will. Acquired the grain and I will install the new laboratories. Then you institute. Early research grant is their Prime Minister. The Commission, Sorry.

So you see real funding potential in aerospace applications for metal matrix composites. In practical terms, which specific national or international grant bodies would you approach for such research, and what makes your work competitive compared to peers in this area?

So you've got a plan for writing proposals and setting up labs focused on aerospace applications. But to clarify, can you share one or two examples of your research that's been published in reputed journals, and how those studies contributed to your field?

So you’re prioritizing aerospace applications for your composites and would target national fellowships like Early Career Research grants. Given the competitive nature of those funding streams, what’s your strategy for making your proposals stand out—especially compared to larger, established labs?

Whatever the project I'm writing. From that cross I will acquire some. Based on that. I will establish more laboratories inside in our institute. And with that project grant also I will. Uh, give me some notifications like project associate and research associate advertisements so that I can take those research associated. In the in our laboratories. So through that project, I want to globalize my research. So whatever the project I'm getting. I will recruit some project associates. Under the research associates. And second thing, what are the funding I'm getting? With that one I am established. I will establish. A world class cutting edge elaborators instead of the campus.

Alright, moving to your approach to teaching. Suppose you’re running an advanced manufacturing lab for 60 undergrads, but you can’t rely on slides or chalk-and-talk lectures. How would you structure a session so that students are genuinely engaged and actively learning the material?

OK. That is good question. So if I'm teaching a. The strength of the detector. So what I will do if there is no shorts and slide?

OK. That is good question. So if I'm teaching a. The strength of the detector. So what I will do if there is no shorts and slide? So I will take some prototypes to the classrooms and I will explain how this prototype will made. And in which method this will make and what the application of that method? And what are the? Mechanical. Microstructural. Aspects inside that. They don't agree. So yes, I'm. Mechanical Engineer. That is subjected to a metallurgical background during my PhD. I will explain. How this material is subjected to different conditions like extreme environments? At high temperatures at different frequencies. Different vibration environments. Under these conditions I will explain those product. Directly the prototype I will explain to the students. If there is no charge on slides.

Alright, let’s turn to your role as a steward of institutional standards. Suppose you join our department and discover that outcome assessment data is inconsistent across courses—how would you go about addressing and fixing that?

So you're focused on hands-on demonstration with prototypes, connecting metallurgical background to real-world stresses and applications — not just theory. Now, if you joined our department and found that the outcome assessment data for accreditation was inconsistent across courses, what concrete steps would you take to fix that?

So if the outcome assessment data. For acquisition is. Insufficient then. Again. Remodify the curriculum that is available in the institute so. Whatever the curriculum, I will. Go through that, Kalam. Are we considered different topics? Whether these topics are. Really useful. And whether the stock is are really useful to. Real time applications. And I will go through the topics which directly. Visible to industrial applications. So if there is. Some misalignment is there inside that curriculum.

So if the outcome assessment data. For acquisition is. Insufficient then. Again. Remodify the curriculum that is available in the institute so. Whatever the curriculum, I will. Go through that, Kalam. Are we considered different topics? Whether these topics are. Really useful. And whether the stock is are really useful to. Real time applications. And I will go through the topics which directly. Visible to industrial applications. So if there is. Some misalignment is there inside that curriculum. I will definitely modify all these tools. I will make a good curriculum. Relate to academia, industry collaboration. And definitely this. Enhance the students. What's happening? Outside this. Like the industries?

Alright, let's switch gears. Imagine a student files a formal complaint alleging your grading was biased, but at the same time, your department head is pressuring you to raise pass rates. How would you handle this situation while maintaining both academic integrity and professional relationships?

So if the outcome assessment data. For acquisition is. Insufficient then. Again. Remodify the curriculum that is available in the institute so. Whatever the curriculum, I will.

I will make a good curriculum. Relate to academia, industry collaboration. And definitely this. Enhance the students. What's happening? Outside this. Like the industries? We'll do this, uh, steps. Hello. Hello.

You mentioned you'd revamp the curriculum if assessment data was lacking, especially to realign with industry needs. Let’s make this concrete—suppose a student files a formal complaint alleging your grading is biased, while your department head urges you to increase pass rates. How would you handle that situation?

Hello. Hello. Are you dead? Are you there?

Okay, so you’d revise the curriculum if outcomes weren’t meeting accreditation needs, focusing on industry alignment and making sure topics are actually relevant. Let’s make this more concrete: imagine a student files a formal complaint alleging your grading was biased, but at the same time your department head is pressuring you to raise pass rates. How would you handle that situation?

You said you'd realign the curriculum toward industry relevance if you found misalignment, but let's shift to a different kind of challenge. Suppose a colleague asks you to add your name as a co-author on a research paper, but when reviewing their data, you notice some results look questionable or possibly manipulated. How would you handle that situation?

Okay, so you’d address gaps in accreditation data by remodifying the curriculum and making it more industry-aligned, especially if you find topics that aren’t practically relevant. Let’s make this more concrete: imagine a student files a formal complaint alleging your grading was biased, but at the same time your department head is urging you to raise pass rates. How do you handle the situation?

No, actually. While assessment of. Student answer scripts. I will follow a definite rules and regulations. I will. Follow that guidelines.

No, actually. While assessment of. Student answer scripts. I will follow a definite rules and regulations. I will. Follow that guidelines. That head of the department is saying. Like you have to pass some students.

No, actually. While assessment of. Student answer scripts. I will follow a definite rules and regulations. I will. Follow that guidelines. That head of the department is saying. Like you have to pass some students. I will explain how these students are failed. And what are the driveways and what are the limitations? That the students failed regarding this one. And and I will explain to the head of the department like. What are the reasons behind this? And I will again cross check the cross check those papers. Everything and. Is some pressure is there, then I will explain that head of the department. This is now. And I will motivate that one. To write that. Examine a good manner and. Pass this two months.

You said you follow definite rules and guidelines when grading—so what if your department head disagrees with your approach and insists you adjust grades to meet a quota?

You said you’d stick to definite rules and guidelines in grading, even if the department head asks you to pass students. But if they push back and insist you adjust grades to meet a quota, what would you actually do in that situation?

You said you'd follow the guidelines, explain the reasons for student failure, and even re-check the papers if needed, but if the department head still insists you raise grades to meet a quota—what would you actually do in that situation?

No, actually, if the head of the department is continuously saving. So I will. It it depends on the. Distributor ranking business system. Let us say. Uh, it's minimum. Breast is needed. Can attend some rank that institute so. I will teach that students in a better way. In from the next semester. And I will motivate that students. To write that exam in a. Very good explanatory. So that the students will. Pause the next academic session.

Given your background in powder metallurgy and hybrid composites, do you have any existing relationships with companies or industry partners that could help create internship or placement opportunities for students at VIT University?

No, actually, if the head of the department is continuously saving. So I will. It it depends on the. Distributor ranking business system. Let us say. Uh, it's minimum. Breast is needed. Can attend some rank that institute so. I will teach that students in a better way. In from the next semester. And I will motivate that students. To write that exam in a. Very good explanatory. So that the students will. Pause the next academic session. I will do that. So are you there?

Okay, so if the head keeps pressuring you, you focus on better teaching and motivating students for the next cycle instead of inflating grades now. Let’s shift to industry connection for a moment—given your background in powder metallurgy and hybrid composites, do you have any existing relationships with companies or industry partners that could help create internship or placement opportunities for students?

Yeah, actually when I worked as an assistant professor at GMR Institute of Technology, Rajam. I have worked. On the central internship. Coordinator. At at that time I have made a good relationships with near and around the companies. And I have sent many of my students. To work the. For one month to to 45 days. SA internship now also I have a good contacts with those companies. So if required I will suggest. My own students. To go there and to learn something which will related to photometric and hybrid metal matrix compos. But not only related to this one. Defendant New topics are there. In that curriculum. So I will find some industries and I have good connections with those industries and I will send those students to the. Industries to do internships under. Today, internships and Co. To learn what's really happening in the industry.

Yeah, actually when I worked as an assistant professor at GMR Institute of Technology, Rajam. I have worked. On the central internship. Coordinator. At at that time I have made a good relationships with near and around the companies. And I have sent many of my students. To work the. For one month to to 45 days.

SA internship now also I have a good contacts with those companies. So if required I will suggest. My own students.

Yeah, actually when I worked as an assistant professor at GMR Institute of Technology, Rajam.

Yeah, actually when I worked as an assistant professor at GMR Institute of Technology, Rajam. I have worked. On the central internship. Coordinator.

So you had industry connections during your time at GMR Institute of Technology. Can you name a company or describe a specific collaboration you helped set up that led to internships or projects for your students?

So you were the central internship coordinator at GMR Institute of Technology. Can you name a company or describe a specific collaboration you helped set up that led to internships or projects for your students?

Alright, so you acted as internship coordinator and set up short-term industry placements for your students at GMR Institute. Can you name a specific company you partnered with, or describe what the students actually did during those internships?

Alright, Dr., now I want to focus on a few key skills for this role. When you’re evaluating students—say, during a practical exam or lab assessment—how do you make sure your grading is both fair and consistent across the whole class?

Okay, so you maintained strong industry contacts and actively sent students for internships, even beyond your core research area. Shifting gears, when you’re leading a practical or lab exam, how do you make sure your grading is consistent and fair, especially if you’re evaluating a large group?

No, no in the. Learn what I will do. Yes, but the curriculum I will divide. Those number of students into different lab groups. And for each group I will assign individual. Projects. Not a project. Individual experiments. So during analyzing what I will do. I will call. I will go to each and every student in the particular group. Let us say 10 groups are there. Each group 5 students are there. First time I will grow to group number one. That five students, are they? I will ask each and every student. To perform those experiments. Apart from the conducting experiments. I will ask different questions. Related to those experiments. And I will analyze those students. Based on this. Answers Andre. The experiment capability skills. Analyzing this. Show during final viral voice. It's not a directly. Asking how do how you are performing experiments. So I will ask some advanced questions like how you will do modification in that machine. And if I want some. And new novel work, how we will modify this machine? Lisbon Some. Some high level questions I will ask and I will analyze that. Incapability of that student. Based on that one I will assign the Hello. Hello, are you there?

No, no in the. Learn what I will do. Yes, but the curriculum I will divide. Those number of students into different lab groups. And for each group I will assign individual. Projects. Not a project. Individual experiments. So during analyzing what I will do. I will call. I will go to each and every student in the particular group. Let us say 10 groups are there. Each group 5 students are there. First time I will grow to group number one. That five students, are they? I will ask each and every student. To perform those experiments. Apart from the conducting experiments. I will ask different questions. Related to those experiments. And I will analyze those students. Based on this. Answers Andre. The experiment capability skills. Analyzing this. Show during final viral voice. It's not a directly. Asking how do how you are performing experiments. So I will ask some advanced questions like how you will do modification in that machine. And if I want some. And new novel work, how we will modify this machine?

No, no in the. Learn what I will do.

No, no in the. Learn what I will do. Yes, but the curriculum I will divide. Those number of students into different lab groups. And for each group I will assign individual. Projects. Not a project. Individual experiments. So during analyzing what I will do.

No, no in the. Learn what I will do. Yes, but the curriculum I will divide. Those number of students into different lab groups.

You were about to explain your process for fair grading in lab exams. You said "No, no in the... learn what I will do" — can you walk me through exactly how you ensure consistency when grading a large group practically?

Alright, you've split students into lab groups, but I'm really asking about how you keep your evaluation objective when grading—like, do you use rubrics, double-check with a colleague, or something else to make sure every student is treated the same way?

So you've got students split into groups and assigned specific experiments—can you walk me through exactly how you make sure your grading is objective for each group, especially if you’re the only evaluator?

So you assign experiments to each group, then evaluate every student individually by observing their technique and asking both practical and advanced questions about modifications or improvements. But with all that, when it comes to recording grades, do you use a set rubric or scoring sheet to keep things objective, or is it more based on your judgment in the moment?

So you split students into groups, assign specific experiments, and personally observe each student’s technique and responses, even asking advanced questions about modifying equipment. But with that hands-on approach, do you also use any kind of rubric or standardized checklist to make sure you’re not unintentionally grading some groups harder than others?

Yes, definitely I will follow some grade sheet. Under that grade sheet I will like. Divide the marks based on different criteria. Uh, regarding uh. Writing records. In performing the job experiment. Like let us see if I'm giving. And to make a workplace at your turning operation, reduce the diameter of that work. So I will observe how can you done the experiment. How much surface finish he got? Based on that job, I will give some marks. Based on the experimentation, I will give some marks. Based on the attendance, I will give some marks. Waste Discip. I will give some marks. And based on final voice and how he is answering in the vivo voice. I will give some marks. It means it is not randomly like I will go some X number of. It's completely a. Particular structure I will make. The espionage structure only I will give you. SN marks to H&W students.

Yes, definitely I will follow some grade sheet. Under that grade sheet I will like. Divide the marks based on different criteria. Uh, regarding uh. Writing records. In performing the job experiment. Like let us see if I'm giving. And to make a workplace at your turning operation, reduce the diameter of that work. So I will observe how can you done the experiment. How much surface finish he got? Based on that job, I will give some marks. Based on the experimentation, I will give some marks. Based on the attendance, I will give some marks. Waste Discip.

Yes, definitely I will follow some grade sheet. Under that grade sheet I will like. Divide the marks based on different criteria. Uh, regarding uh. Writing records. In performing the job experiment. Like let us see if I'm giving. And to make a workplace at your turning operation, reduce the diameter of that work.

So you break down the grade sheet by criteria like record keeping, experimental execution, and in your turning operation example, you’d grade based on how they reduce the diameter as instructed. How do you handle situations where two students follow the same procedure but get different results—do you grade purely on outcome, or do you factor in their process and troubleshooting?

Alright, so you break down the grade sheet by criteria like record keeping, experimental execution, and in your turning operation example, you’d grade based on how they reduce the diameter as instructed. How do you communicate your grading criteria to students before the exam so they know what’s expected?

Right, so you’ve got a structured grade sheet with points for each aspect—execution, records, attendance, discipline, and how they handle the viva. That gives your process some objectivity. Now, looking at your research publications, can you name one that you feel had a real impact on industry practices or academic understanding, and explain what made it stand out?

Yeah, see whatever the research I have done. The main objective. Of my research to fabricate. Automobile brake disc. In the existing industry. So. Whatever the aluminium, silicon carbide and hybrid matrix composite. Powder Metallurgy. I have tested those composites and the real world environment. Means how? That how much in the real? 2 Wheeler how much load? It will apply. And at how much distance it will stop? Like that I have. Based on those input conditions, I have tested my composite. So. My PhD work is 100% useful to industry. That is the automobile industry to fabricate the. Uh, automobile brake disc Based on that one, I have collaborated with an industry. And I have filed one patent. And the patent also granted. For me PhD verse so it is useful to automobile break industry.

Alright, you actually collaborated with industry on your PhD work, tested your hybrid composites under real automotive conditions, and even secured a patent related to brake discs. Now, do you have any experience working on industry-funded projects or consultancy assignments outside your dissertation research? If so, what was your role?

During my PhD I have worked in. Uh, college, That is the National Institute of Technology. So after that. During my first poster. At IIT Bhubaneswar. I have worked. In that process, I have the Institute postdoc fellow, but I have worked in. Apart from ipdf work I have did some. Air research work which was obtained by some project. So at that time I have collaborated with some industry. And we have some good discussions with the industry, academia. At that time I have some experience.

And over the process to attain the project. Hey Cortana, I have some conversations. With DRDO, DMRL, everything so. We have a. Start up together during my poster No, actually.

Alright, so you mentioned your initial positions at NIT and IIT Bhubaneswar—can you give me a concrete example of an industry-oriented project or consultancy you were directly involved with, not just in an academic setting, but where you worked with a company or external partner? What was your actual contribution?

Alright, you started telling me about your postdoc at IIT Bhubaneswar and hinted you did some work beyond your main fellowship—can you give a concrete example of a consultancy or industry-linked project you directly contributed to, and what your role was?

Alright, Dr., we're wrapping up. Is there anything you'd like to ask about the role or the team?
