Welcome to my website

I am a researcher in the field of , who employs experimental and numerical modeling tools to solve Geotechnical-engineering problems. My research also involves developement of tools.

Research Interests

Heat & Mass Tranfer in Soils

Applications: design of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbine, design of earth-dam, tailing dam and foundations

Dynamic Soil Structure Interaction

Applications: design of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbine, design of earth-dam, tailing dam and foundations

Subsurface Flow Modeling

Seepage analysis of earth-dam; migration of polutant in the ground

Stability Analysis of Slopes and Earthen dams

Risk assessment of irrigation ponds, tailing dams; rainfall and/or earthquake induced slope failure

THM Response of Soils

Effect of freezing and thawing on strength of soils; artificial ground freezing techniques; dessication cracking of soils; drying of soils; desing of thermo-active structures
