Hello, welcome to my webpage. I am currently working as an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Previously, I was a Research Fellow in the Aerodynamics and Flight Mechanics research group at the University of Southampton. My research focus was on developing embedded LES-RANS methodologies in compressible flows with applications to predicting flow around aircraft spoilers accurately and efficiently. At the University, I worked with Professor Richard Sandberg to develop these methods.

Before moving to England, I worked as a post doctoral researcher at Oak Ridge National Lab (ORNL), Tennessee, USA. My appointment at ORNL was possible through Advanced Short Term Research Opportunity (ASTRO) program. During my time at the lab, I worked on enhancing an in-house lattice Boltzmann solver and its pre-processor.

I pursued my doctoral studies under the guidance of Professor Steven Frankel, in the School of Mechanical Engineering, Purdue University. My research was on developing a high order numerical frame work for simulating and understanding the blood flow in human arteries in healthy and pathological conditions. The main goal of the research is to accurately predict/simulate the working conditions of medical devices used in pathological arterial repair. The incompressible flow solver that I am working with specifically has large eddy simulation (LES) as the turbulence model, and enhancements such as implementation of immersed boundary method (IBM) and a parallel multi-block frame were contributed by me in order to handle complex geometries that commonly arise in arterial flow domains.

Prior to enrolling for my doctoral studies, I worked at ANSYS FLUENT India Pvt. Ltd., Pune, Maharashtra, as a software development engineer on the FLUENT project. During this time, I have had an opportunity to work with a dynamic and smart solver meshing team. I worked on new enhancements and issues related to solver meshing such as non-conformal interfaces and moving meshes during my tenure.

I pursued my masters studies in the Department of Aerospace Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Uttar Pradhesh. I worked under the guidance of Professor Tapan K. Sengupta towards my thesis on direct numerical simulation of free shear layers. During this time I worked on spatio-temporal instability of zero pressure gradient boundary layers and numerically solving compressible Navier-Stokes equations using compact schemes to simulate flow field developed by a round jet issuing into a quiescent atmosphere. Prior to joining post graduate studies I finished my bachelors studies from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University College of Engineering, Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, in Mechanical Engineering.
