PRO JECTS

Blood Flow Analysis using Reduced Order Modelling and Artificial Neural Network

The use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) in constructing Reduced Order Models (ROMs) for complex systems is investigated in this project, specifically for non-Newtonian blood flows with magnetic field effects in an artery with stenosis. By utilizing high-dimensional simulations, a comprehensive dataset is generated in a wide parametric space of Reynolds numbers and Hartmann numbers. The project describes the application of Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) on snapshots of the vorticity field, enabling the construction of a low-dimensional representation of vorticity data.

Estimating Phenotype Transition Probabilities via Conditional Complexities

Developed a python based software to make predictions of phenotype transition probabilities. The findings of this project will be submitted in a well reputed journal in near future.

Blood Flow Analysis

FORTRAN-based flow solver which numerically simulates the blood flow phenomenon in stenosis arteries. The flow solver is user friendly, although not having a graphical user interface, takes input parameters, and results the numerical values used to analyze the heat and mass transfer in a fluid flow containing different nanoparticles.

Parallel Scientific Computing for Numerical Simulations of Fluid Flow

FORTRAN-based parallel flow solver for super computers which numerically simulates the incompressible fluid flow problems. The flow solver is designed using OPENMP and OPENMPI in such a way that it can work on shared memory or distributed memory or hybrid memory machines. The flow solver is extended from Euler equations to Maxwell further upto Navier Stokes equations.

Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Algorithms

A MATLAB-based customized code to rank the players of National Basketball Association for the season 2019-2020. The code basically ranks the players using multi-criteria decision-making method. 500+ players with over 25000+ matches have been analyzed and ranked based on 14 criterias. The ranking is much more efficient as compared to the ranking by the website.

Programming

FORTRAN, MATLAB, C++, and python based solvers for different phenomenons has been written as a Freelancing service, ranging from nuclear reaction mechanism for delayed protons to finite element based flow solvers.
