Associate Professor
Mechanical Engineering
Professor Sachin Goyal’s research group at UC Merced delves into fundamental mechanical engineering research. Their focus lies at the intersection of mechanics, dynamics, and controls, driven by applications in biology and medicine. They emphasize physical modeling, mathematical analysis, and computational simulations. Their investigations span human biomechanics to the structural dynamics of micro-scale biological filaments. For example, they explore the biomechanical symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, aiming to transform early diagnosis and treatment strategies. Additionally, their work bridges engineering applications with cross-disciplinary impact.
