Bharat Gwalani

Dr. Bharat Gwalani is a materials scientist and engineer who is currently a professor at North Carolina State University. He is well recognized in the field of high entropy alloys (HEAs) development and has published over 45 peer-reviewed articles in this field. He is also interested in material degradation, phase transformations, microstructural-mechanical/magnetic property relationships, solid-state processing of materials, additive manufacturing, and characterization of battery materials.

Dr. Bharat Gwalani's research at North Carolina State University focuses on developing alloys through compositional and process optimization for use in structural and functional applications. He aims to understand the fundamental aspects of material behavior and their response to various environments from the atomic to micrometer scales. His research group uses multi-length-scale materials characterization tools to develop synthesis-processing-property relationships in metallic systems.
