Dr. Kang teaches ME 3295, ME 5895 in Fall ’23

ME 3295, ME5895 Special Topics in Mechanical Engineering : Additive Manufacturing Technologies

https://catalog.uconn.edu/directory-of-courses/course/ME/3295/

https://gradcatalog.uconn.edu/course-descriptions/course/ME/5895/

This course introduces 7 different types of additive manufacturing (also known as 3D printing) technologies based on ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers) standards; Powder bed Fusion, Binder Jetting, Directed Energy Deposition, Material Extrusion, Material, Jetting, Sheet Lamination, and Vat photopolymerization, along with the fundamental physics governing each method. When possible, students will gain hands-on experience and hear from industry experts on how additive manufacturing is used in their companies. Hybrid manufacturing is discussed along with literature review on current research. Students will obtain a deep understanding of the capabilities of each 3D printing method and learn how to think about designing and fabricating objects using this new technology.

The 16th International Symposium on Functionally Graded Materials

Dr. Kang is organizing a mini-symposium on “Multi-material, Heterogeneous Additive Printing of 3D Materials” at the 16th International Symposium on Functionally Graded Materials, where Dr. Kang and Dr.Awasthi will be giving talks on ”National Science Foundation (NSF) SHAP3D Center and Multi-Material 3D Printing” and “3D additive manufacturing of the multimaterial diffractive optical element (DOEs) using femtosecond direct laser writing (Fs-DLW)”

Come listen to our talks and find out more about our research work in August!
