Welcome to the Intelligent Manufacturing & Materials Design (IMMD) Lab

About IMMD Lab

IMMD Lab is an interdisciplinary research lab in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Binghamton.

Our research vision is that the integration of physics-based and data-driven models will be indispensable for systematic process and materials design for advanced manufacturing processes in the near future.

Our research mission is to create and integrate novel computational tools (physics-based and data-driven) at different time- and length-scales to solve forward and inverse problems of Process-Structure-Property relationships. Current primary research topics include but not limited to:

  • Multiscale multiphysics modeling and simulation for metal additive manufacturing
  • Physics-informed machine learning
  • Optimization and generative design
  • Process monitoring and control for digital twins in metal additive manufacturing

We are grateful for the funding from Binghamton University and National Science Foundation.
