Research Interests
Asifur Rahman's research interests focus on the nonlinear mechanics of morphing structures, multistable systems, and metamaterials. By combining numerical modeling, experimental validation, and custom computational tools, he develops a mechanistic understanding of adaptive systems. His current research explores their dynamic response, mechanical computation, and fluid-structure interactions. Looking ahead, Asifur aims to advance embodied mechanical intelligence in structural systems for unmanned aerial vehicles that can sense, adapt, and interact with complex environments.
