Graduate Student Sivom Manchiraju Wins Award
Sivom Manchiraju, a graduate student in the Mechanical Engineering Department, recently received an award in the Student Presentation Competition at the 7th World Congress for Computational Mechanics. The award, which was won in the material modeling specialty area, was presented by the Material Modeling Specialty Committee of the U.S. Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM) and the Executive Committee of USACM.
Advised by mechanical engineering Professor Somnath Ghosh, Manchiraju's award-winning paper was titled, "Multi-Time Scale Analysis of Cyclic Deformation in Polycrystalline Metals." Based on his graduate research, Manchiraju's paper addresses computational simulations of the deformation process in metals subjected to cyclic loading.
The Mechanical Engineering Department congratulates Sivom Manchiraju for his academic excellence, his outstanding research, and for receiving the Student Presentation Competition award at this year's 7th World Congress for Computational Mechanics.
