The broad areas of Research are Simulation of Dislocations and Epitaxial systems by Finite Element Method, Study of complex intermetallics. Finite Element Method (FEM) is not only a powerful tool for engineering analyses, but also for understanding the fundamental material behavior at the nano scale. In fact 'new phenomenon' and 'new materials' can be discovered using FEM simulations. This becomes possible because continuum behavior can be retrieved at the length scale of even a few lattice spacing. Various structures and defects in crystals can be simulated and associated processes can be understood using FEM. These include:

  •  Simulation of dislocations, epitaxial films, twins, grain boundaries, precipitates etc.
  •  Study interactions between these defects
  •  Formation of interfacial misfit dislocations in epitaxial thin films
  •  Precipitation and coherent to semi-coherent transition of precipitates
