Tejas G. Murthy works on the mechanics of granular and geological materials, studying how sand, cemented soils, and other particle-based systems deform, fracture, and transmit forces under stress. His work combines laboratory experiments, imaging, and micromechanical analysis to understand phenomena like shear banding, soil cementation, indentation, and cutting in soft rocks, with connections to fluid-particle interactions. This research is relevant to geotechnical engineering, soil mechanics, and the physics of granular materials.
