Deepak Kumar uses synergistic approaches, including computer models, laboratory and full-scale experiments to better understand the offshore structural behavior under random environment and develops techniques to enhance their performance. Few topics in recent years are:
Passive and semi-active control of structure using magneto- Rheological dampers to enhance the performance and life of structure under environmental conditions.
Understanding and designing the liquid dampers like TLD and TLCD for enhancing the performance of structures.
Stochastic structural control of nonlinear system.
Development of technique for health monitoring of large structure using Artificial Neural Network.
Understanding the dynamic response of system with changing direction.
Reliability analysis of nonlinear system under extreme environmental conditions.
