Somnath Ghosh is the Michael G. Callas Chair Professor at Johns Hopkins University, holding joint appointments in the Departments of Civil & Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Materials Science & Engineering. He directs the Computational Mechanics Research Laboratory (CMRL) and founded the Center for Integrated Structure-Materials Modeling and Simulations (CISMMS). His research focuses on multiscale computational mechanics, materials science, and integrated computational materials engineering (ICME). Key areas include additive manufacturing, fatigue and fracture mechanics, machine learning, and uncertainty quantification.
Education includes a B.Tech. from IIT Kharagpur, M.S. from Cornell University, and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan. Ghosh has led major initiatives like NASA’s Space Technology Research Institute for Additive Manufacturing (IMQCAM) and the Air Force-funded Center of Excellence in Integrated Materials Modeling (CEIMM). He has authored over 300 peer-reviewed publications, three books, and is a Fellow of multiple societies, including the AAAS, ASME, and TMS.
Award highlights include the Theodore von Karman Medal (2025), J.N. Reddy Medal (2024), and Nathan M. Newmark Medal (2013). His work bridges theory and industry applications in aerospace, automotive, and defense sectors. Labs under his leadership (CMRL and CISMMS) develop digital twins and advanced modeling tools for materials qualification and design.
