He received his PhD in laser material processing from Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology and RWTH Aachen University, Germany in 2004. Before joining SIMTech in 2008, he worked as a research fellow at Rolls-Royce Technology Center in the School of Mechanical, Materials and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Nottingham, UK. His research focuses on welding and additive manufacturing, process monitoring and control for applications in aerospace, marine, oil & gas, precision engineering etc. He has published more than eighty journals and conference papers with several patents, trade secret and technology disclosures related to additive manufacturing, welding and joining. His research outcomes have also been adopted and licensed to local companies in marine turbo-charger MRO and Oil & Gas industries. Dr Yao Xiling is a Research Scientist with SIMTech. He received his PhD in mechanical engineering from the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in 2016. Prior to joining SIMTech, he worked in the precision engineering and electronic manufacturing industry. His current research focuses on advanced CAD/CAM, process monitoring and control, and new equipment development for welding/additive manufacturing. He has several intellectual properties (e.g. patents, trade secrets, and technologies disclosures) on both hardware and software inventions that are ready to be licensed by the industry. Dr Chew Youxiang is a Research Scientist with SIMTech and works in the area of laser materials processing since 2012. Dr Chew has experience in both experimental process development and numerical modelling of laser-aided additive manufacturing (LAAM) processes. He has continuously worked in extending the capability of using LAAM for 3D additive manufacturing applications in terms of size and complexities of the components built. He has also developed a method to build freeform structures with overhang regions using LAAM and successfully applied the method to build an offshore structural component. Dr Chew’s research interests are on microstructure simulation of LAAM process and enhancing the material properties of existing and new alloy systems.
