Trosolwyg

Since the beginning of my academic career, I have been focusing my research on innovative and emerging manufacturing technologies and in particular machine learning, micro manufacturing and 3D printing, combining them when relevant.

This highlights a particular aspect of my research activities. The machine learning techniques I am developing can be seen as enabling-technologies that can be used for modelling and knowledge discovery in other research fields, but in particular in my main other area of interest, micro manufacturing.

At the same time, the micro manufacturing process chains I am developing also act as enabling-technologies for other field of research, such as for the development of novel medical devices or in thermo-fluidic applications.

More recently, I have also been looking at how to integrate emerging 3D printing techniques into more advanced and reliable manufacturing process chains, such as through the post processing of metal ALM components using laser ablation or through the development of novel material for 3D printing

This wide range of activities is reflected by the range of joint publications I contributed to and by the range of co-authors coming from various research disciplines that I worked with on various interdisciplinary project, both as coordinator and as co-investigator. These projects covered different aspects of technologies development from fundamental research to technology transfer and networking activities.
