Dr Wei Min Huang was awarded his PhD from Cambridge University in 1998 and since then joined the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He has 19 years of experience on shape memory materials (alloy, polymer, composite and hybrid) and various shape memory phenomena. He has published over 100 journal papers and two books (Thin film shape memory alloys – fundamentals and device applications, Polyurethane shape memory polymers) about this topic.
1. Shape memory materials and composites (bulk and thin film)
2. Laser annealing and micro fabrication
3. Thin films (characterization and materials/devices)
4. Micro/nano mechanics, nano patterning and indentation technology
5. Surface and optical properties of smart materials
6. Micro assembly and packaging, active disassembly
7. Materials selection
