Product development of an ankle brace using 3D printing by Chew, Zhi Yuan

“…Previous work had been done to investigate the use of patented diamond-like metamaterial to restrict ankle inversion. The previous prototype, made of two different metamaterial designs (Diamond-like metamaterial and Square Grid metamaterial) was able to retain full range of motion in common sporting motions and provided ankle support at critical angles of inversion. …”

Effect of lognormal particle size distributions on particle spreading in additive manufacturing by Zhao, Ya, Chew, Jia Wei

“…This discrete element method (DEM) study focusses on the impact of particle polydispersity during the particle spreading process on parameters that affect the quality of the final product, like packing and bed surface roughness. The particle systems include four lognormal particle size distribution (PSD) widths, which are benchmarked against the monodisperse system with the same mean particle diameter. …”
