We are proud to share that Prof. Rakshanda Showkat has recently secured two prestigious research projects, marking a significant achievement in advanced geotechnical and defense-related research.

๐Ÿ”ฌ Project 1:
โ€œSuctionโ€“Stiffnessโ€“Microstructure Coupling in Unsaturated Soilsโ€
๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ”ฌ Role: Principal Investigator (PI)
๐Ÿ’ฐ Grant: โ‚น60,65,511
๐Ÿ›๏ธ Funding: ANRFโ€“PMECRG

๐Ÿค– Project 2:
โ€œTerrainโ€“Robot Interaction for Legged, Wheeled, and Tracked Platforms Operating Over Deformable Soilsโ€

๐Ÿค Collaboration with Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT), Pune

These projects highlight cutting-edge work at the intersection of soil mechanics, material behavior, and advanced robotics, contributing to both fundamental research and national technological advancement.

๐Ÿ‘ Congratulations to Prof. Showkat on this remarkable accomplishment!
