About
Dr. Tekcham Gishan Singh is an Assistant Professor of Structural Engineering in the Department of Civil and Infrastructure Engineering at IIT Jodhpur. Dr. Singh specializes in advanced steel and steel–concrete composite systems, particularly cold-formed and hollow structural sections, high-strength steel, perforated members, modular steel construction, concrete-filled steel tubes, corrosion, and fire/post-fire behaviour. His work combines experimental testing, finite-element modelling, and design-oriented research to understand member behaviour, stability, deterioration, and residual strength, with the broader aim of developing practical design methodologies and improving structural performance.
Dr. Singh earned his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati in 2019 and completed his B.Tech. from the National Institute of Technology Karnataka in 2013. Before joining IIT Jodhpur in 2021, he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) from 2019 to 2021. He also gained industry experience as an Assistant Engineer at Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. from 2013 to 2014.
His current and emerging research interests include FRP-based strengthening and rehabilitation of steel structures, additive manufacturing, fatigue and fracture, 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and structural qualification of metallic components for civil, industrial, and aerospace applications. He has published extensively in leading international journals and serves as an Editorial Board Member of Scientific Reports, published by Nature Portfolio.
