Amirhossein Sadeghian

Dr. Amirhossein Sadeghian is a Research Fellow at Coventry University's Centre for Manufacturing and Materials, specializing in laser-based manufacturing, metal additive manufacturing, and advanced welding techniques for electric vehicle battery components. He contributes to the Laser Processing and Joining Group and the WAVETAILOR project for sustainable laser production.

His academic qualifications:

• PhD in Materials Engineering (Dissimilar Materials Welding for EV Battery Manufacturing), Coventry University (2020-2024, awarded 2025)
• MSc in Materials Engineering (Welding), Amirkabir University of Technology (2015-2018)
• BSc in Materials Engineering (Metallurgy), Imam Khomeini International University (2010-2015)

Dr. Sadeghian's research spans Laser-based Manufacturing, Physical Metallurgy, Additive Manufacturing, and Laser Technology. He specializes in Robotic Laser Welding, Laser Cladding (L-DED), Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF), and advanced characterization techniques (OM, SEM, EDS, XRD, EBSD). His work integrates in-process monitoring with microstructural analysis to optimize parameters for zero-defect manufacturing aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Analysis of his 11 publications (2019-2023) reveals dominant focus on dissimilar laser welding for EV batteries (copper-steel/aluminum joints), blue laser applications, and process parameter effects. Earlier work addresses high-temperature joining of superalloys via transient liquid phase bonding, with significant citation impact (e.g., 211 Scopus citations for 2022 review).

As an active researcher in the WAVETAILOR project (2024-2027) on modular laser sources, he also serves as peer reviewer for Journal of Materials Science, Optics and Laser Technology, and Journal of Laser Applications. His external role as Early Career Group Secretary at the Association of Industrial Laser Users extends his industry engagement.

Within Coventry University's Laser Processing and Joining Group, he advances sustainable manufacturing through cutting-edge research on laser-material interactions, microstructural control, and energy-efficient production systems for next-generation industrial applications.
