Umair Arif is currently working as a Guest Faculty at Community College, AMU, and has previously served as an Assistant Professor (contractual) at the Mechanical Engineering Section, University Polytechnic, AMU, Aligarh.
He has a
Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from AMU, India, specializing in Electric
Discharge Machining (EDM) and hybrid metal matrix composites. His work has
resulted in 16 publications (6 SCI, 8 Scopus), including papers in Scientific
Reports (NATURE) and JMEP, and a book titled Green and Sustainable EDM
(Lambert Academic Publishing). He holds 2 patents, one granted and another
published, and has 3 years of teaching experience. He is a recognized peer
reviewer for prestigious journals like International Journal of Advanced
Manufacturing Technology (SCIE) and Journal of Composite Materials (SCIE).
His academic excellence is underscored by awards such as the 2nd Best Ph.D.
Thesis Award and GATE qualifications in Mechanical Engineering (2013) and
Production Engineering (AIR 544, 2024). Umair has presented at international
conferences in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and India. His research emphasizes
sustainability, reducing carbon footprints in manufacturing, and ergonomic
workplace design, supported by an H-index of 4 and 51 citations.- Enhanced machining of Al 10%SiCmicro 1%SiCnano hybrid composite using rotary tool rotary workpiece EDM with bio dielectrics and treated tools
