Biography

Kumar Shanmugam is a Professor of Composite Materials and Advanced Manufacturing in the James Watt School of Engineering at the University of Glasgow.  He obtained a Ph.D. in Solid Mechanics and Materials Engineering from University of Oxford in the Department of Engineering Science. He is primarily focused on exploring Materials Innovation and Design within the realm of Advanced Manufacturing, including additive, digital and sustainable approaches. Kumar has generated more than £5M through external grants. He also serves on the editorial boards of the Advanced Engineering Materials (Wiley)International Journal of Adhesion and Adhesives (Elsevier), Scientific Reports (Nature) and MetalMat (Wiley). Additionally, he serves as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance (ASM International). Kumar has edited a book, contributed 7 book chapters, and authored more than 120 journal articles.  Fore more details, visit Multifunctional Materials and Additive Manufacturing Lab.

Research interests

My research interests revolve around materials innovation & design with a focus on multiscale and multifunctional attributes, particularly in the context of additive manufacturing (AM) towards energy-efficient, sustainable and de-carbonising applications. Our current efforts focus on advanced multifunctional materials and composites. Our group’s strength in combining theory, computations and experiments has led to several novel contributions, for e.g., 3D printed compliance-tailored multilayersarchitected materialsspatial material grading motifs in nacre.  For more information, please visit  Multifunctional Materials and Additive Manufacturing Lab and  Materials and Manufacturing Research Group.
