I started off as an experimental researcher working on low-temperature deformation behaviour of materials and later got trained in the range of theoretical as well as simulation tools applicable to Materials Science and Engineering. We employ a hybrid experimental-simulation methodology to develop the understanding of structure-property correlation in materials with an aim to develop design rules for the development of newer materials for a sustainable future.
In addition to the above, I am interested in Archaeometallurgy as well. We employ a range of characterisation tools to study the archaeometallurgical objects in our group to deduce the structure-property-processing relations for these objects.

A combined experimental-theoretical-simulation scheme is employed to develop a multiscale understanding of the structure-property correlation in materials. We employ a range of simulation schemes such as Density Functional Theory, Molecular Dynamics, Tight-Binding and mesoscale schemes in conjugation with machine learning algorithms.
The ongoing research is broadly classified into the following domains:
- High-Entropy Materials
- Equilibrium and Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
- Machine learning in Materials Science
- Design of Sustainable Materials
- Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME)
- Archaeometallurgy
