Description
4D Printing of Composites: Methods and Applications provides comprehensive coverage of the theory behind this emerging technology, its impact on materials development, functional characterization, and the technical details required for readers to investigate novel emerging applications. The advantages and limitations of the technology are discussed in detail as well as laboratory developments, industrial implications, commercialization, and avenues for future development. The book will be a valuable reference resource for academic and industrial researchers working in materials science, mechanical engineering, and product design and those working in composite materials development and manufacturing engineering in various industries.
About the Author
Prof. Gurminder Singh is currently working as an assistant professor at the mechanical engineering department, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India. He worked as a postdoc researcher in the school of mechanical and materials engineering at University College Dublin (UCD), Dublin, Ireland. Before joining UCD, Dr Singh was a Postdoc fellow at SIMAP Lab, University of Grenoble Alpes, France, where his research focused on the experimental and simulation studies of the extrusion 3D printing of metals. Dr Singh was Gandhian young Technological Innovation Award for the development of a 3D printing method for the fabrication of patient-specific stents in 2020. He has published over 26 articles in peer-reviewed international journals, conference proceedings and books. He has published in leading journals such as Additive Manufacturing, Materials Science and Engineering: A, Journal of Manufacturing Processes, Rapid Prototyping, etc. Dr. Ranvijay Kumar is an Assistant Professor (Research) at Marwadi University Research Center. He holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Punjabi University, Patiala. His expertise includes additive manufacturing, smart materials, friction-based welding, polymer composites, and plastic waste management. He has co-authored 80+ SCI-indexed research papers, 50 book chapters, and presented at 20 conferences. A recipient of the prestigious CII MILCA Award (2020), his work is published in top journals. Recognized among Stanford University's top 2% scientists (2022-2024), he has significantly contributed to additive manufacturing and advanced material research. Sunpreet Singh is researcher in NUS Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Initiative (NUSNNI). He has received Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, India. He has contributed extensively in additive manufacturing literature with publications appearing in Journal of Manufacturing Processes, Composite Part: B, Rapid Prototyping Journal, Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology, Measurement, International Journal of Advance Manufacturing Technology, and Journal of Cleaner Production. He has authored more than 150+ research papers and book chapters. He is also editor of 3 books- "Current Trends in Bio-manufacturing", "3D Printing in Biomedical Engineering", and "Biomaterials in Orthopaedics and Bone Regeneration - Design and Synthesis". He is also guest editor of several journals- special issue of "Functional Materials and Advanced Manufacturing", Facta Universitatis, series: Mechanical Engineering (Scopus Indexed), Materials Science Forum (Scopus Indexed), and special issue on "Metrology in Materials and Advanced Manufacturing", Measurement and Control (SCI indexed), Materials, Sustainability (MDPI). Dr. Chaudhery Mustansar Hussain, PhD, is an Adjunct Professor and Director of Laboratories in the Department of Chemistry & Environmental Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), Newark, New Jersey, United States. His research is focused on the applications of nanotechnology and advanced materials, environmental management, analytical chemistry, and other various industries. Dr. Hussain is the author of numerous papers in peer-reviewed journals as well as a prolific author and editor of around One hundred and fifty (150) books, including scientific monographs and handbooks in his research areas. He has published with ELSEVIER, American Chemical Society, Royal Society of Chemistry, John Wiley & Sons, CRC Press, and Springer.
