Congratulations to Dr. Zhai Wei and Dr. Zhan Liuxiang on their latest publication! 👏 We’re pleased to share their review paper “Wearable soft actuation systems for human–machine–environment interactions”, published on Materials Today. The paper presents state-of-the-art advances in materials, fabrication methods, and integration strategies for soft actuators that prioritize safety, comfort, and responsiveness. As the […]

AM.NUS is proud to congratulate Dr. Zhai Wei on her team’s exciting achievement! Dr. Zhai and her team at NUS Mechanical Engineering have engineered a bamboo-inspired hydrogel that not only absorbs impact with impressive strength, but can also lift over 50,000 times its own weight – all while using sustainable, bio-based ingredients. This ultra-tough, flexible […]

Congratulations to Dr. Tan Yu Jun and her team on their latest publication! Their newly published work in Advanced Materials introduces a 3D-printed self-powered auxetic mechanoluminescent (ML) photonic skin – a stretchable, durable, and highly visible solution designed for underwater communication and safety monitoring. By leveraging auxetic materials (with a negative Poisson’s ratio), they developed […]

Research Focus Develop advanced bioinks for 3D bioprinting applications. Develop multifunctional 3D scaffolds for biomedical applications. Qualifications & Requirements Qualification: PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Materials […]

This Centre-supported study published in Materials Science and Engineering on 23 February 2025 examines the high strain rate deformation behavior of selective laser melted (SLM) stainless steel 316L under different printing strategies (0°, 90°, and 67° scanning angles) and heat treatment conditions. The results show that SLM SS316L exhibits strain rate sensitivity and thermal softening […]

We are proud to announce the results of the 3D Printing Drone Airframe Cover Competition, co-organised with Temasek Polytechnic (TP) and supported by NAMIC Singapore and Association of Aerospace Industries (Singapore)! Held from May to September 2024, the competition challenged contestants to use Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) to create innovative and functional drone airframe […]

Heartiest congratulations to Dr Sriram Gopu on his fantastic achievement to wrap up 2024! AM.NUS is proud to have supported Dr Gopu in his latest publication on “3D bioprinting and AI-assisted biofabrication of personalized oral soft tissue constructs”, which is a testament to the groundbreaking work being done in biofabrication. The paper demonstrates an innovative […]
