Faculty
Dr. Xiong Yi is an assistant professor in School of Automation and Intelligent Manufacturing at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech). He received his Ph.D. degree in Engineering Design and Production from Aalto University, Finland, in 2016. From 2016 to 2017, he worked as a research engineer at Flanders Make, Belgium and participated in several R&D projects to develop industrial-grade additive manufacturing systems. From 2017-2020, he was a research fellow II in the digital manufacturing and design center at Singapore University of Technology and Design. His research interests include computational design and fabrication, design for additive manufacturing, adaptive process planning, design and optimization of complex engineered systems, intelligent measurement and control. Dr. Xiong has over ten years of international R&D experience, working with several projects funded by EU FP7, National Research Foundation (Singapore), Research Foundations Flanders (Belgium), and Academy of Finland. He has authored more than thirty peer-rereviewed scientific publications. Dr. Xiong also serves as a reviewer for international journals, including IEEE-ASME T MECH, IEEE Sens. J., and Rapid Prototyp.
