| Citation | Vikram S Deshpande has made seminal contributions in mechanics of materials, ranging from the design of microarchitectured materials to modelling soft and active materials. He has made fundamental discoveries by a combination of novel experiment and theoretical insights that have laid the foundation for the microstructural mechanics of engineering and biological systems, a new field he helped create during the past one and half decades. His work has redefined the modern frontiers of mechanics research and has had profound impact in engineering science and related technologies. |
