Kamal Shanker Patel, PhD

I'm a physicist at heart, builder by intent, and founder by conviction. As the CEO of Avkalan Labs, I’m leading the development of AI-native simulation software designed to bridge physics, code, and the cloud. We’re reimagining how engineers interact with physical models, shifting from static, rigid tools to intelligent, generative environments powered by first-principles thinking. I also co-founded Eigenplus, a community of over 100K+ engineers and learners, built to revive a love for physics by making it deeply intuitive, visual, and applicable. What started as a knowledge-sharing space is now a movement, fueling curiosity, confidence, and capability in core engineering. At the core of my work lies a single belief: If you understand the principles, you can simulate the world. From simulation tools for industry and defense to community-powered learning for engineers, my mission is to make physics generative, programmable, and powerful. What I’m Focused On: → Building simulation software with real-time, modular physics engines → Turning natural inputs (like speech) into generative spatial design → Collaborating with academia, and deep-tech ecosystems → Creating the next generation of first-principle engineers
