Sai Sidhardh works on mathematical and computational models for how materials behave at very small scales or under complex loading, including 'nonlocal' and 'strain gradient' elasticity theories that account for material behavior not fully captured by classical mechanics. Recent work focuses on fractional-order (a generalized calculus-based) mathematical framework for modeling elasticity, piezoelectricity (materials that generate electricity under stress), and damage, as well as analytical and computational models for adhesively bonded composite (CFRP) joints and structural optimization using machine learning tools like generative adversarial networks. This research combines applied mathematics, numerical methods, and structural/materials engineering.

Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade, with a peak around 2020, a lull in 2022-2023, and a renewed increase from 2024 through upcoming 2026 publications.
