Biography

Dr Munguia has over a decade of experience working with Additive Manufacturing /3D Printing technologies, CAD/CAM Design, Industrial and manufacturing engineering. His research encompasses:

• 3D CAD/CAE design, analysis and design optimization: parametric/generative design, topology optimization
• Medical devices design & manufacture
• Materials characterization, fatigue/long cycle materials tests
• Machinery / test-bench design / purpose built 3D printing systems
• Design for Additive Manufacturing / 3D Printing
• Design theory and methodologies (QFD, Kansei, Axiomatic Design, Robust Design)

Open PhD opportunities:

• Carbon-negative acoustic dampening and insulating structures via digital bio-fabrication

This is a unique opportunity to undertake a PhD program at both UK and Singapore, spending years 1 and 4 at Warwick University and years 2-3 at SIMTech, A-Star institute.
