Metal additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is revolutionizing industries by enabling the precise creation of complex parts with unprecedented flexibility. This technology reduces waste, accelerates production and allows for customized designs, making everyday products—such as medical devices and transportation components—more accessible and affordable. As AM continues to evolve, it holds the potential to transform key aspects of our lives.   

How might metal 3D printing impact everything from healthcare to environmental sustainability?  

Professor Yu Zou’s research delves into the fundamentals of metal AM, exploring its material properties, design principles and real-world applications. He will discuss the technology’s current and future applications, highlighting its impact in critical fields such as aerospace, biomedical engineering, and energy.
