About Dr. P.Venkateswara Babu
As A Kid Growing Up, I Was Into The Curiosity Of How Things Are Made And How They Work, Which Led Me To Choose To Be An Engineer. With The Innate Interest In The Field Of Mechanical Engineering And Impressive Performance In The Engineering Entrance Examination, I Had Secured A Seat In This Discipline At The SVU College Of Engineering Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. My Bachelor’s Major Has Given Me A Broad Exposure To Numerous Subjects Like Design, Thermodynamics, Manufacturing, Mechanics, And Mechanical Vibrations Etc. As A Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Student With A Keen Interest In The Industrial Environment, I Have Learnt The Principles Of Mechanical Engineering Those Apply To Most Machines, Tools And Processes Which Naturally Extended My Scope Of Learning And Research. This Has Intrigued Me To Explore The Option Of Pursuing Master’s Degree In Mechanical Engineering From A Prestigious College, Which I Believe Will Not Only Supplement My Knowledge That I Have Attained But Also Provide Me The Best Possible Platform For The Attainment Of My Future Goals. To Fulfil My Ambitions, I Have Pursued The Manufacturing Engineering Master’s Degree Course From National Institute Of Technology, Warangal. The Course Quenched My Curiosity Towards Manufacturing Aspects With The Research Work I Have Carried Out. As A Part Of My Research, I Have Come Across The Concept Of Surface Engineering. As An Enthusiast, I Have Gone More In-Depth On The Aforementioned Concept. As An Answer To My Search, I Have Found An Exciting Area In Mechanical, Which Is Referred To As Tribology. As A Tech Enthusiast, I Have Never Left Tribology Updates Since Then; I Would Like To Get Deeper By Pursuing A Doctoral Thesis In The Same Area, Contributing To The Existing Knowledge And Literature Base Under The Esteemed Guidance Of Facilitators Of National Institute Of Technology Warangal. I Have Submitted My Dissertation Entitled As “Tribological Performance Of Positive Surface Textured Sliding Contact Under Mixed Lubrication– An Experimental And Numerical Approach” And Finally Acquired My Doctoral Degree From NITW. In The Context Of My Ph.D., I Have Published Ten Research Papers So Far In Reputed International Journals And Various International/National Conferences. Some Of My Publications Are Listed Below. With My Passion For Teaching, I Have Joined As Assistant Professor At Vasireddy Venkatadri Institute Of Technology, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh. The Young Achiever Award By Institute Of Scholars (Insc) Boosts My Confidence And Future Endeavors In Terms Of Learning and Research Among Students
