Biography

Ganesh Subbarayan is a professor in the School of Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University. His research specializes in computational experimental solid mechanics with an emphasis on fatigue, fracture, and multi-physics phase evolution problems. He employs advanced computational techniques such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) to solve complex engineering problems. His work on geometric modeling and Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is crucial for optimal design processes, particularly in the context of heterogeneous integration in advanced electronics packaging. He focuses on the thermomechanical behavior, reliability, and electrical-thermal-mechanical co-design of semiconductor materials. Dr. Subbarayan has contributed significantly to fundamental research areas of solid mechanics and has applications in semiconductor technology. He obtained his B.Tech. from the Indian Institute of Technology in 1985, followed by an M.S. and Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1989 and 1991, respectively.
