My research journey in geotechnical engineering has evolved across three academic stages, each contributing to my expertise in soil-structure interaction and numerical modeling. During my bachelor's at NIT Raipur, I focused on soil stabilization techniques, exploring ways to enhance weak subgrade soils for better pavement performance. My master's research at National Taiwan University centered on geosynthetic encapsulated granular columns (GEC) for slope stabilization under seepage conditions, where I conducted coupled hydro-mechanical analyses and validated numerical results with 1-g reduced scale experiments. Currently, in my Ph.D. at Virginia Tech, I am developing the material point method (MPM) for root-reinforced soil.
