This is my research laboratory at IIT Bombay. It focuses on understanding the mechanical response of advanced engineering materials and structures as well as biological matter. We develop theories to mathematically describe their mechanical behaviour and numerically implement these theories in computer programs. We also use the developed numerical capabilities for solving relevant scientific/engineering problems in different material/mechanical systems.
We use techniques such as the Finite Element Method, Monte-Carlo Method, Molecular Dynamics and DFT to investigate phenomena at different length scales. We use numerical tools such as ABAQUS, LAMMPS, DFT-FE and develop computer programs using MATLAB and FORTRAN.
