Our paper on mixed-category stochastic microstructure design is online. We proposed and compared two approaches for freeform design of various categories of stochastic microstructures in a unified design space: https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4063824
I have returned from the 2023 EU-US Frontiers of Engineering symposium organized by NAE. It was a great pleasure to connect with researchers from various engineering disciplines in Europe and US and to learn about their exciting work. Also enjoyed the tour of the Nokia-Bell lab!
My first appearance on the list of Elsevier Database Top 2% Scientists (single year). It is based on the top 100,000 scientists by c-score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the sub-field. https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/6
Our first paper in food engineering. In this work led by Dr. Anson Ma at UConn, we investigated 3D printed candies with tunable mechanical properties. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfoodeng.2023.111736
