• His main research focuses on the development and application of cutting-edge simulation approaches to investigate the structure, properties, and reactivity of complex materials including Magnetic metal oxides, nanoparticles, surfaces, interfaces, and solids. A key area of his work involves exploring the magnetic properties of a wide range of materials, including FeSiAl composites, MnZn ferrites and their substituted structures, thin films, and surfaces. His research group has pioneered the development and application of advanced computational methods and custom codes to accurately predict critical magnetic properties. In particular, they investigate the effects of spin-orbit coupling on properties such as magnetic anisotropy, providing deep insights into the fundamental mechanisms that govern magnetic behavior in complex materials.

• He leads a dynamic, multidisciplinary research team that is pushing the frontiers of magnetic materials. Leveraging state-of-the-art computational techniques, the team explores material behavior at the atomic and molecular levels, with a strong focus on real-world applications. This is made possible through close, long-standing collaborations with leading experimental groups in China and around the world. A hallmark of Dr. Bandaru’s research philosophy is the seamless integration of theoretical modeling with experimental validation an approach that ensures both scientific rigor and practical relevance. His work has been widely recognized, with five of his research papers featured as cover articles in prominent scientific journals, highlighting the impact and visibility of his contributions. Beyond publishing, Dr. Bandaru is deeply involved in fostering a global scientific dialogue. Through these efforts, he aims not only to deepen our understanding of complex materials but also to drive innovation and advance the global discourse in materials science.
