Ishan Srivastava

I am an Applied Math postdoctoral scholar in the group of John Bell at the Center for Computational Science and Engineering in Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, where I am developing numerical simulations of stochastic systems that describe complex fluids at the mesoscale. Previously, I was a postdoctoral scholar in the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies at Sandia National Labs, where I worked with Gary Grest on theoretical and computational investigations of soft and granular materials, and with Scott Roberts on mesoscale investigations of lithium-ion battery electrodes. I received my PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University in summer of 2017, where I was advised by Prof. Tim Fisher at the Birck Nanotechnology Center.
