About Tanmoy Mukhopadhyay
I am currently working as an Assistant Professor at the Aerospace Engineering Department of IIT
Kanpur. Prior to that I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Engineering Science Department of the
University of Oxford, UK. I completed my PhD from the College of Engineering of Swansea University,
- My research interests and expertise broadly lie in the field of mechanics and multi-physics
analysis focusing on mechanical metamaterials and advanced functional composites at multiple
length-scales covering forward and inverse problems in engineering that warrants frequent
excursions among the boundaries of applied mathematics, physics, probability theory and
nanotechnology. The research findings and developments originating from our investigations are
regularly published in reputed journals (with publishers like Nature, RSC, IOP, APS, Elsevier and
Springer), conferences and books.
I am passionate about high quality research and teaching that matters to the society and
mankind. I am a recipient of the Zienkiewicz Scholarship from Swansea University, UK covering full
tuition fees at international rate and generous living expenses for pursuing doctoral study. My
research work was recognized as the best PhD in engineering among all the departments and
colleges of the university. Before moving to UK for pursuing PhD, I received Junior Research
Fellowship from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. I was awarded the MHRD Scholarship for
completing masters study at the same institute. My master's thesis in the field of inverse problems
was recognized as the best thesis in structures with highest grade. The present focus of my research
is on mechanical metamaterials and advanced multi-functional composites encompassing different
critical aspects related to solid mechanics, materials and structures.
