Trushant Majmudar

Trushant Majmudar is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Mathematics at New York University. His research focuses on Bio-fluid Dynamics, Bio-locomotion, Soft Condensed Matter, and Granular Materials. He holds a Ph.D. from Duke University (2006).

His work explores the mechanics of biological systems, such as C. elegans locomotion in structured environments, and the dynamics of viscoelastic jets and granular materials. Key research themes include force networks in granular systems, jamming transitions, and nonlinear fluid behavior.

Publications highlight studies on granular response to impact, viscoelastic jet coiling, and the interplay between material properties and locomotion. His work bridges experimental and theoretical approaches, with contributions to understanding granular rheology, biological movement mechanics, and complex fluid dynamics.

No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned. His academic contributions are centered in applied mathematics and interdisciplinary mechanics.
