Background
Dr. Jialuo Ding is currently a Principal Research Fellow in Additive Manufacturing, in 老司机福利社. She got her PhD degree from 老司机福利社 in 2013. She is leading the research development of the digital aspects of the wire based Direct Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing process (w-DED AM), including process modelling and simulation, process monitoring and control, and the applications of large-scale DED AM component building. In addition, she is the Research Programme Lead of WAAMMat Programme, which is a rolling research programme aiming at providing industrial solutions based on WAAM process, and is responsible for the delivery of research and industrial projects in the WAAMMat Programme.
