About
Sachin Salunkhe is a multidisciplinary researcher whose work spans rehabilitative robotics, advanced manufacturing, and prosthetic design — fields where engineering innovation directly improves human lives. His most influential contribution to date is a comprehensive 2024 review of wearable assistive rehabilitation robotic devices, which has already garnered 21 citations, reflecting its immediate relevance to stroke recovery research and musculoskeletal health. Salunkhe has made significant strides in incremental sheet forming (ISF), developing a validated mathematical model for force prediction in single-point ISF and conducting pioneering comparative studies on robot-assisted cold and warm ISF of aluminum alloys, with these works earning 14 and 13 citations respectively. His 2024 investigation into robot-assisted incremental sheet hydroforming further advances formability analysis for complex geometries. Complementing his manufacturing expertise, Salunkhe's early work on topology-optimized prosthetic finger design demonstrates his commitment to translating engineering principles into assistive medical devices. Collectively, his research bridges precision manufacturing and human-centered design, making him a noteworthy emerging voice for students and researchers working at the intersection of robotics, biomechanics, and advanced fabrication technologies.
