Satchi Venkatamaran
Associate  Professor
Program Area: Aerospace Engineering
Research Interests: Dr. Venkataraman’s expertise is in the area of structural optimization. His recent work has investigated progressive failure predictability of composite laminates. He has published papers on identification of factors affecting failure predictability and use of surrogate measures to improve robustness and failure predictability (Venkataraman and Salas, 2007), use of structural fuses to control failure and improve robustness and failure predictability (Salas and Venkataraman, 2007), investigation of effect of model uncertainties in progressive failure predictability (Salas and Venkataraman, 2006), and effect of load redistributions and competing failures in progressive failure of redundant truss structures (Marhadi and Venkataraman, 2006).
