Dr. Nitin Satpute

Associate Professor & Dean

Vishwakarma University

Research Area

  • Vibration energy harvesting where Dr. Nitin had reported energy harvesting devices with excellent power to weight ratio.
  • The main highlights of the work includes motion modification using gears/linkage/fluid links, detailed Matlab/FEA analysis, customized design of the necessary electric generators, smart materials, smart manufacturing and detailed experimentation in time and frequency domain with sensors including accelerometer, LVTD and other types of sensors.
  • Recently work has been started in process for use of Nano-Technology for hydrophobic surface, high loss factor composites, high strength epoxy based composites, heat storage and improvement in heat transfer with non-fluids, FE-N magnets and magnetic composite materials.
    Few funded research projects are presently in progress and few have been completed in the domains of vibrations, complaint/flexible mechanism, Nano particles and magnetic material development.
