Mandakini Padhi

I have good knowledge and experience in a variety of fluid dynamics and particle technology areas, including computational fluid dynamics, mathematical modelling, rheology, and hybrid modeling. I am also passionate about data analytics and image analysis, and I enjoy finding new ways to apply these skills to solve complex problems Currently exploring the physics-informed neural networks platform to identify the difficult to achieve variable in PDEs through experiments.
I believe that new technology has the power to revolutionize the way we develop and deliver solutions, and I am eager to learn and implement state-of-the-art technologies with given opportunities.
