About

After completing PhD from IIT Roorkee in July 2023, I worked as a Post-doctoral Fellow at IIT Kanpur from August-November 2023. Currently working as post-doctoral researcher at IIT Dharwad since December 2023. I am engaged in full-scale 3D simulations of hypersonic nozzles and space vehicles using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and hybrid Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) methods.
