I am currently pursuing an M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. My master&rsquo;s thesis focuses on accelerating routine finite element simulations using novel machine learning techniques. My research interests include finite element analysis, computational mechanics, machine learning for engineering, and scientific computing. I interned at Maruti Suzuki India Limited, where I worked on manufacturing automation and machine vision-based quality inspection projects for automotive manufacturing.</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>MTech Project:</strong> Accelerating routine Finite Element simulations using novel Machine Learning techniques</p> </blockquote>
