Post Doctoral Fellows

I am a postdoctoral researcher working at the interface of continuum mechanics, nonlinear elasticity, and applied mathematics. My current research focuses on reduced-order and asymptotic modeling of nonlinear elastic plates within a continuum-mechanics framework, with particular emphasis on stability and post-buckling analysis. This work builds directly on and extends my earlier, peer-reviewed contributions on surface and guided wave propagation, multiple scattering, and source-induced wave phenomena in elastic media, including Rayleigh waves and metasurface-mediated wave control. I have published on Rayleigh waves, nonlinear and interior-source-driven wave mechanisms, and metasurface-based wave control, developing continuum formulations that connect wave physics with structured materials. I received my PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology Indore, where I developed analytical and numerical frameworks for wave propagation and scattering in elastic and structured continua.
