Functional Capabilities and Design Laboratory

To develop technologies for manufacturing products that are useful to society

Our aim is to develop technologies that are useful and relevant to society through research on manufacturing and material processing. We are working on their specific applications in medical equipment, such as devices to fix the position of bones and stents, which secure the flow of blood among other functions. The devices must be safe to use and cost effective. They also must be controlled and designed in a way that they can maximize the performance of the materials used. We are conducting the aforementioned research with students at our lab.
