Doctoral  Student at IIT Madras

 

I'm a Doctoral Student in the Department of Civil Engineering at IIT Madras, working under the supervision of Dr. Ramesh Kannan Kandasami.

My research interests broadly lie in understanding the geomechanics of the gas hydrate sediments. I am currently working on the constitutive modeling of hydrate sediments and developing the coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) simulator for the extraction of  gas from the hydrate reservoir.

      Geometry of the hydrate reservoir model and boundary conditions 

Vertical displacement

Pore pressure

Volumetric strain

Deviatoric strain
