After completing his B.E. in Chemical Engineering from Jadavpur University in 2020, Arkava worked as a Project Associate at the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory in India. He will be working broadly in the domain of active matter, currently doing computational studies on self-propelled particles. His research interests include computational work related to flow and transport, on which he mostly worked at the Polymer Lab, Jadavpur University. He has also done industrial projects related to plant design, process flow simulation, equipment design, simulation, and failure analysis. He is always looking out to work on fun, challenging new projects.Â
When he doesn't feel like working Arkava likes to delve into books, mostly non-fiction, or watch a good film or cook (most often consulting YouTube videos). He also likes to regularly run outdoors or go for a hike on weekends preferably away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
