Bridging Physics and Machine Learning for Complex Engineering Systems | CFD &Nanofluidics | Mechanical Design & Analysis

Profile Summary

I am a PhD in Fluid Mechanics from IIT Kharagpur with over 10 years of experience spanning fundamental research, computational engineering, and hands-on mechanical design. My work sits at the intersection of physics-based modeling and modern machine learning — I build models that are not just data-driven, but grounded in physical laws, making them robust, interpretable, and reliable for real engineering applications. Research & Scientific ML: My doctoral and post-doctoral research focused on nanofluidics, electroosmotic flows, and graphene-based desalination membranes. I have developed and deployed Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to recover hidden physics from complex fluid systems — work published in journals including Desalination (Elsevier) and Journal of Chemical Physics (AIP). I am proficient in molecular dynamics simulations using LAMMPS and GROMACS, and computational fluid dynamics using OpenFOAM and Ansys Fluent. Engineering & Design: Beyond research, I bring practical mechanical engineering depth — CAD design using SolidWorks, FreeCAD, and AutoCAD, FEA/FEM analysis, and hands-on experience designing and manufacturing industrial equipment including centrifugal blowers, fluid handling systems, and CNC machinery. What I can help you with: Physics-Informed ML modeling for fluid, thermal, or structural systems CFD simulations and analysis (OpenFOAM, Ansys Fluent) Mechanical design, prototyping, and manufacturability review Scientific consulting for research projects and publications I bring both the theoretical depth of an IIT-trained researcher and the practical instincts of an engineer who has built real systems — a combination that is rare and directly useful for complex, high-stakes problems.
