My research interests are evolving, but for now are encapsulated by the following areas-
Structural Mechanics
High strain rate response of composite materials
Bio-mechanics of human body subjected to extreme forces
Smart composites and structural members
Multi-Hazard Vulnerability and Risk Assessment
Force Protection and Blast Resistant Design
Seismic and Wind Hazard Mitigation
Microstructural modeling of cementitious materials
Energy Harvesting
Co-generation and integration with existing infrastructure
