51Âþ»­

Research Fellow and PhD research student at the Lean Engineering Research Group within Advanced Manufacturing Processes and Mechatronics Centre of 51Âþ»­. Adam has completed his Master degree in Mechatronics at 51Âþ»­ with distinction in September 2012. He also has 4-year industrial work experience in equipment maintenance and project planning and coordination for multi-million dollar projects in container terminals.

Adam has been involved in research projects at 51Âþ»­ since January 2012. He started his research work in microwave electronics by investigating the dielectric properties of solid and liquid materials and the associated physical and chemical changes to the material due to electromagnetic waves.

Adam has been working at the Lean Research Group since September 2012 and has been involved in the management, supervision and implementation of different Technology Strategy Board funded projects. The projects integrate different engineering disciplines such as manufacturing science, materials science, information technology, art and media, civil engineering and mechanical engineering.  

Current Projects:

• Development of an Autonomous Systems Development Tool (ASDT) for application within manufacturing operations-planning 
• Achieving vertically-integrated carbon-fibre reinforcement design and manufacture demonstrators for structural manufacturing and construction 3-D composites (AVISC) 
• Development of a Metadata-based Animation and Art Production Improvement Tool (MAAPIT)
