Kedar Kirane
Interests: Failure mechanics of composites and heterogeneous materials, Multiscale constitutive modeling, Experimental mechanics and material characterization
Solid Mechanics
We break stuff so you don’t have to. And we know why things break. We are designing, building, and studying materials that break less, break better, and even just don’t break.
