Research Interests

My research interests are both broad and specialized, primarily focusing on computational studies of soft matter systems. Currently, I am on the verge of completing a project on the dynamics of polystyrene oligomers in the presence of graphene in a toluene solvent.

I am also excited about exploring other areas such as CO₂ adsorption in nanoporous materials and hydrogen adsorption in various nanostructures, including modified or decorated carbon nanotubes and graphene. My interests further extend to nano confinement, nano materials, and polymer nano composites.
