Shravan is the recipient of the APS FECS Mini Grant from the APS Forum for Early Career Scientists (FECS). The grant covers registration fees to attend the APS March Meeting 2024 in Minneapolis, MN.

Shravan received the Future Investigator Travel (FIT) Award from the APS Division of Soft Matter (DSOFT). The travel grant partially covered the funding to present soft matter talk titled “Rheological fingerprints of non-inertial debris flows” at the Annual Meeting of the APS Divison of Fluid Dynamics (Washington DC, November 19-21, 2023).

Shravan is recognized as a finalist for the Victor K. Lamer Award by the Colloid and Surface Science Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS). He will deliver an invited talk as a LaMer Keynote Speaker at the ACS Colloids and Surface Science Symposium (Raleigh, June 4-7, 2023).

Shravan’s poster was selected for Honorable Mention at the American Physical Society Forum for Early Career Scientists (APS-FECS) Poster Competition, held in connection with the 2023 APS March Meeting. The poster was titled “Jamming distance: a physics-informed design parameter for dense suspension rheology”.

Shravan delivered an invited talk titled “Material constraints dictate flow mechanics in dense suspensions” at the DSOFT sponsored Frontiers in Soft Matter session. He was one of the five postdocs in the field of Soft Matter selected to deliver the talk at this invited session.

Our work on modeling the thixotropic and viscoelastic flow behavior of model clay (kaolin-based) suspensions using Bayesian Inference is published in the Journal of Rheology and featured as the Editor’s Featured Article.

Our project to understand the flow properties of debris flows is published in PNAS and available via. open access here.

Shravan will be attending the Kavli Institute of Theoretical Physics (KITP) program on Multiphase Flows in Geophysics and the Environment from October 23 - November 11 and presenting a poster in the associated conference on Unifying perspectives on geophysical and environmental multiphase flows.

Shravan received third place in the Postdoctoral Poster Award competition at the Society of Rheology Annual Meeting, held at Chicago.

Excited to share our recent manuscript exploring the hydrodynamic origins of enhanced viscoelasticity in rough colloidal suspensions. The work is selected as the Editor’s Featured Article.

Shravan is selected to attend the 2022 Boulder Summer School on Hydrodynamics Across Scales.
