Shyamini Kularathna is a computational geotechnical engineer with 11 years’ experience combining advanced numerical modelling, finite element and material point methods with offshore foundation and soil–structure interaction practice. With a PhD from Cambridge and postdoctoral work at UC Berkeley, she has developed high-performance C++ MPM codes used in industry research and implemented custom constitutive models in Abaqus while automating geotechnical workflows in Python and Fortran. Her roles at Ørsted, Geotechnical Consulting Group and AtkinsRéalis demonstrate delivery of practical engineering solutions for complex offshore projects, informed by rigorous lab testing and ground-movement analysis. Colleagues value her ability to bridge research-grade algorithms and production engineering through bespoke automation and visualization (including Houdini/Unity for 3D modelling). Notably, she pairs deep numerical rigour with a focus on reproducible, data-driven workflows for faster, more reliable site-specific predictions.
