Meet Our Featured Speaker: Professor Kumaraswamy Adepu | M-Nano 2026

We are pleased to feature Professor Kumaraswamy Adepu from the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT), India, as a speaker at the 2nd Edition of the International Congress on Materials Science and Nanotechnology (M-Nano 2026).

About the Speaker

Prof.Kumaraswamy Adepu is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at DIAT (DRDO), with 31 years of experience in teaching, research, and academic leadership. His research interests include nano-, micro-, and macro-indentation, high-strain-rate deformation, tribology, and mechanical characterization of advanced materials.

He has contributed significantly to materials research through four patents, 75 peer-reviewed journal publications, six eBook chapters, and 45 conference proceedings. He has also supervised numerous PhD and postgraduate scholars and served as Principal Investigator for research projects funded by DRDO.

Featured Presentation

Title: Relevance of Indentation (Nano/Micro/Macro) in Current Materials Research

His presentation explores the importance of instrumented indentation techniques for characterizing mechanical properties across different length scales. The research focuses on aerospace alloys, including Ti-6Al-4V and Haynes 242, examining how indentation size, strain rate, and temperature influence hardness, yield stress, strain hardening, and other mechanical properties.

The study integrates experimental indentation techniques with finite-element simulations to improve the understanding of material behavior from the macro- to nanoscale. These findings are valuable for the characterization and performance assessment of aerospace materials under demanding mechanical and thermal conditions.
