Rubayet Hassan PhD Student Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering New Jersey Institute of Technology New Jersey, USA Research Interest My research focuses on the Mechanics of Nanomaterials and Biological Systems, with a particular emphasis on employing theoretical and computational methodologies. I am intrigued by the mechanical behavior of fluctuating surfaces, particularly in the context of lipid bilayers and man-made flexible nanostructures such as molybdenum disulfide, phosphorene, boron nitride, and MXenes. One key aspect of my work is developing a continuum statistical mechanics model to investigate the entropic pressure near these fluctuating surfaces. Additionally, I utilize molecular dynamics simulations to gain deeper insights into the behavior of fluctuating membranes, aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical modeling and computational observations in biophysics and material sciences.
