Researcher

Chen Wang is a Senior Scientist and Principal Investigator at A*STAR SIMTech. He received his PhD degree jointly from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and Loughborough University, UK.

His research focuses on lightweight optimisation and design for additive manufacturing (DfAM). He studies a ‘design-to-process’ framework that aims to replace costly trial and error with predictive, digitally driven development. His work spans multiscale modelling, coupled thermal–mechanical behaviour of materials during forming, composite mechanics and interfaces, interface engineering in hybrid structures, and process-induced residual stress. Through this research, he aims to help manufacturers move from part design to robust production with fewer iterations, less scrap and shorter development cycles.
