About Avin Vijay
I an Assistant Professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the University of Washington, Seattle. The main focus of my research lies in the intersection of Mechanics, Manufacturing, and Design Optimization, with a specific focus on space structures, including deployable structures and structures that are designed and optimized for ISAM. My doctoral research focused on thedevelopment of mechanics-based models for DfAM of lightweight composite plate and shell structures, covering carbon fiber-reinforced plastics to additively manufactured plastics and continuous-carbon-fiber-printedstructures. I have more than eight years of experience in developing Finite Element (FE) based algorithms and building FE models using commercial software. My primary strengths include solid mechanics, FE Analysis, optimization and machine learning algorithms, material testing, mechanics of laminated composites and 3D printed materials.
