Education
B.Tech., Mahatma Gandhi University, India (1992)
M.S., IIT Madras, India (1998)
M.Eng., National University of Singapore, Singapore (2000)
Ph.D., Purdue University (2006)
Teaching Interests
CE 320 – Structural Analysis
CE 453/553 – Properties and Performance of Concrete Materials
Research Interests
Dr. Peethamparan has research interests involving various aspects of portland and oil well cement hydration, setting kinetics of cements, microstructure of cement and concrete, development of sustainable construction materials by using industrial by-products such as cement kiln dust (CKD), fly ash, slag and silica fume, alkali aggregate reaction, delayed ettringite formation, and corrosion of steel in concrete. She is also interested in the physico-chemical behavior of soils stabilized with lime and cement kiln dusts.
