Profiel
Biografie
Shyam is a dual Ph.D. candidate at the Wind Energy section of the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft and Politecnico di Milano. He completed his Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the College of Engineering at Trivandrum, India, and his Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering from FH Aachen, Germany. The primary focus during his masters' studies was on the aerodynamic and aeroelastic analysis of aircraft during flutter. During his Ph.D., he will analyse the phenomenon of vortex-induced vibrations on wind turbine towers both numerically and experimentally, where experiments will be carried out in the wind tunnel at Politecnico di Milano.
Shyam enjoys taking pictures of aircraft and would love to find more time for planespotting. Other than that, he likes photography, travelling, hiking, and listening to classical piano, especially Chopin.
