SOURAV DAS SUVRO

Hello, I’m Sourav! Welcome to my corner of the web.

I am a first-year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University, building on my background as a Mechanical Engineering graduate from BUET. My academic trajectory has been shaped by a sustained interest in fundamental science, advanced computation, and the development of engineering frameworks capable of addressing challenging problems across complex physical systems.

My doctoral research, conducted in FX Lab @ Stanford under the supervision of Prof. Matthias Ihme, centers on the study of supercritical fluids through the combined use of ultrafast X-ray diagnostics, coherent scattering methodologies, atomistic modeling, and data-centric computational analysis. Broadly, this work is concerned with resolving the governing physics of phase transitions, molecular-level rearrangement and transport, and ion emission processes in extreme environments. A further dimension of this research involves the integration of machine learning and data science as tools for inference, representation, and predictive discovery in scientifically rich and high-dimensional systems.

Before commencing doctoral study at Stanford, I served as an Adjunct Faculty (Lecturer) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at BUET, where my work included teaching, research, and student mentorship.

Outside research, I enjoy football (soccer), reading, watching films and movie series, playing games, cycling, and long walks.
