Manufacturing the Future of Mechanical Systems

How can we build innovative mechanical systems that respond intelligently to human needs and complex environments?
 

Our research couples data-driven process engineering with advanced manufacturing technologies to transform how mechanical systems are conceived, optimized, and produced.

​

We concentrate on delivering high-performance, customizable, multifunctional products that seamlessly connect the digital and physical worlds.

Multifunctional Structures and Metamaterials

We design structures that do more than just exist—they sense, adapt, and perform. Inspired by nature and driven by computation, we explore multifunctional architectures that combine mechanical performance with properties like energy absorption, stealth, or shape transformation.

Advanced Manufacturing

We investigate and develop novel design-for-manufacturing strategies using technologies like 3D printing, digital fabrication, and automated design optimization. Our goal is to unlock faster, more scalable, and customizable manufacturing workflows that power the next generation of mechanical systems.

Robotic and Assistive Mechanical Hands

We develop next-generation mechanical hands for both robotic manipulation and assistive devices. Our designs are tailored for adaptability, low-cost fabrication, and human-centered functionality—enabling real-world impact for users with partial hand functionality, while pushing the boundaries of robotic dexterity.
