About Me

Hello! I am Shravan Godse, and I am a Mechanical Engineering graduate from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay.

I am passionate about research in Materials Science and I use computational techniques to simulate materials with applications in clean energy.

I'll soon be joining as a PhD student in the research group of Prof. Venkat Viswanathan at Carnegie Mellon University where I'll be working on excting materials for battery applications.

At IIT Bombay, I have been a convener of Krittika, The Astronomy Club. I was also actively involved in mentorship programs at IIT Bombay.

Apart from work, I love to read non-fiction books, watch TV-series (big fan of 'The Office'!) and stargaze (if the skies are clear :P).

If you ever want to talk about quantum physics, materials or The Office, hit me up!

Research

I am interested in using computational techniques such as DFT, as well as machine learning and AI to understand structure-property relationships in materials with a focus on properties specific to clean energy applications.

PhD Research

Stay tuned!

Materials Research Lab

I did most of the research here at IIT Bombay, under the guidance of Prof. Ankit Jain. I worked on finding lattice thermal conductivites using first principles ab-inito technqiues and machine learning driven novel materials discovery.

As a part of my bachelor's thesis, I worked on using renormalization and multichannel thermal transport to find thermal conductivities of 2 type-I clathrates. The work is now published in the Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter.

Here are some paper presentations I gave as a part of weekly group meetings

• Screening billions of candidates for solid lithium-ion conductors: A transfer learning approach for small data
• Interplay between phonons and anisotropy drives negative thermal expansion in PbTiO3
• Anomalous suppressed thermal conductivity in CuInTe2 under pressure
• Machine learning accelerated geometry optimization in molecular simulation

TheoFEM Lab

I also did a research internship at the TheoFEM Lab at TU Munich, under the guidance of Prof. David Egger. Here, the focus was on vibrational spectra of hybrid perovskite FAPbBr3 which was peculiar due to the interesting motion of FA+ ions in the perovskite environment. You can read more about it in my final report.
