Subhadeep Banerjee

Associate Professor, Geotecnical Engineering Division

Subhadeep Banerjee is currently serving as the Associate Professor of the Department of Civil Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, India. He received his PhD in Civil Engineering from National University of Singapore in 2010. His research interests include seismic soil-foundation interactions, cyclic behaviour of geomaterials and finite element analysis of complex dynamic problems. Besides he is also an expert in constitutive modelling of soils special emphasis to the transient dynamic behaviour.... At IIT Madras, he has formed three research groups to study the following attributes, (i) Cyclic characterization of various types natural soils, improved ground, landfills etc., (ii) Development of constitutive models of soils emphasizing on their performance under seismic loadings, and (iii) Application of fundamentals of dynamics to various complex soil-structure problems such as, tunneling, base isolation techniques, plate anchors, retaining walls etc.
