The Defense Institute (DIAT) of Advanced Technology, the premier research and academic establishment of the Ministry of Defense in Girinagar near Pune, recently organized a niche technology workshop focusing on computational and artificial intelligence-driven multiphysics simulations in porous media (CAIMS Poro 2025).
Pune, a press conference issued by DIAT through its Defense Public Relations Officer, read that the CAIMS PORO Workshop is a groundbreaking academic event focused on advances in research and applications in the field of computational and AI-driven multi-purpose simulation in porous media. The workshop was funded by the Promotion Scheme of Academic and Research Cooperation (SPARC), an initiative by the Ministry of Human Resources Development (MHRD) of the Government of India and facilitated by National Coordinator IIT Kharagpur.
The workshop was held by the Ministry of Applied Mathematics at DIAT and was a collaboration between Professor SvSSNVG Krishna Murthy, SPARC University Coordinator of IIT Kanpur and Professor BV Rathish Kumar, DIAT-Pune.
“The main objective of the workshop was to address cutting edge trends and technologies in multi-objective simulations, a very important field in engineering and scientific research. Key topics include digital twins and their applications, AI and machine learning technologies, and multi-objective models for understanding complex porous structures.
Porous structures form important fields in industries such as materials science, geotechnology, and environmental engineering. Over 100 academic experts participated in the event and 23 expert lectures from prominent speakers from India and abroad. The workshop concluded with a Valedictory session with a speech acknowledging the success of the event by DIAT’s Deputy Prime Minister Dr. BHVS Narayana Murthy.
“The structure of this event facilitated a wide range of well-received interactive sessions with understanding the opportunities for participants to interact directly with global experts. These sessions encouraged participants to discuss ways to integrate advanced simulation techniques into their own research projects/research and foster a culture of collaboration and knowledge exchange.” Read releases.
