The research conducted by Dr. Jesuthanam C. P. during his doctoral studies at the National Institute of Technology, Trichy (NIT Trichy), focused on developing advanced decision-making models in machining processes. The study was motivated by the increasing complexity in manufacturing systems and the need for improved decision-making strategies in selecting optimal machining parameters. These parameters are crucial in ensuring product quality, process efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in manufacturing. The thesis proposed novel Function Replacing Hybrids (FRH) as decision-making tools in machining processes, offering a hybridized approach that combines various computational intelligence methods to tackle decision-making under uncertainty. He has made significant contributions to the academic community through his research in Manufacturing Technology, Machining Processes, and Mechanical Engineering. His work has been widely recognized in international journals and conferences.
