Infos

This book coherently presents the advances in technological principles, processes, and methods of Additive Manufacturing (AM), Augmented reality (AR), and Internet of things (IoT) in biomedical technology. It offers an overview of these high-impact technologies in terms of materials, processes, and in-situ monitoring of fabricating biomedical devices, implants, and prosthetics. Furthermore, the book also aimed to cover pedagogical applications, including the design and development of high-fidelity anatomical and hybrid physiological human models, for medical and design students and clinicians for learning, understanding, and gaining insights into the structures and functions of human organs and pathology. In turn, the book also discusses the applications of artificial intelligence in the 3-D printing of pharmaceuticals. This book is a useful resource for manufacturers, scientists, engineers, and young research scholars understand disruptive technology's real potential in biomedical applications.

Rajkumar Velu, PhD., is an assistant professor at the Indian Institute of Technology, Jammu and 2023 visiting research associate at the University of Michigan (UoM), USA. Priorly worked as a research fellow at the Centre for Laser Aided Intelligent Manufacturing (CLAIM), UoM, USA, and as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Digital Manufacturing and Design Centre (DManD), Singapore University of Technology and Design, Singapore. He completed his PhD thesis in selective laser sintering of specific biopolymer composites for biomedical application at the Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand. Dr Velu also receives academic awards for his academic performances at the university level. Consequently, he has considerable insights and knowledge of different polymer, polymer composites, metal alloys and advanced materials used explicitly for additive manufacturing. More than 40 publications were generated from his research activities, and he received a scientific research award at an international conference conducted by Philadelphia University, Amman, Jordan, in 2010. Also, he was a recipient of the 'Young Scientist Award' 2018 at the Annual Conference on 3D Printing and Bioprinting in Health Care, Singapore. Dr Velu's research interests encompass engineering design, optimization, and developing advanced manufacturing processes (Additive Manufacturing) and materials for designing and fabricating fuel cell, biomedical and aerospace applications. Moreover, based on his current research practice, he is involved in developing artificial intelligence into an additive manufacturing process to fabricate end-use products and eliminate post-mortem analysis.

Karupppasamy Subburaj, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor at Aarhus University's Department of Mechanical and Production Engineering in Denmark. He leads an interdisciplinary research group, Medical Engineering and Design (MED), focusing on developing data-driven engineering solutions, including medical devices, methodologies, and analysis tools for diagnosing, predicting, monitoring, and treating musculoskeletal disorders and disabilities. He tackles critical challenges from the complexity of realizing them in biological and clinical settings and translates them to the bedside through collaborations with healthcare institutions and industry. Before moving to Aarhus University, he was a founding design faculty in the Engineering Product Development Pillar at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). In parallel, he served as an adjunct faculty at the Changi General Hospital, where he implemented a pathway for clinicians to work with students to develop engineering product design solutions for their clinical needs. He received his postdoctoral research training in Musculoskeletal Biomechanics from the University of California San Francisco. His publication portfolio includes 4 international patents, 5 books, and over 150 articles and presentations in international journals and conferences. In 2020, He received the Outstanding Education Award - Excellence in Teaching from SUTD for his pedagogical contribution to design-based healthcare engineering education.

S. Anand Kumar, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Jammu. He has over ten years of product development targeting bio-medical, aerospace, and automobile applications. Further, his research interests include Additive Manufacturing, Digital twin of systems, Surface Engineering, Materials Characterisation, Tribology, Fatigue and Fracture. He has published over 95 original research papers in peer-reviewed international journals and conferences. He obtained his PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology-Madras. Further, he has postdoctoral work experience of a couple of years at Tamkang University, Taiwan. He worked as a Principal Engineer at TSMC, Taiwan.
