Xiaoya Zhai (翟晓雅) Assistant Professor @ USTC Rm 1412, Management and Research Building, East Campus, USTC Graphics & Geometric Computing Laboratory School of Mathematical Sciences University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) Email: xiaoyazhai@ustc.edu.cn

I work as an assistant professor in the School of Mathematical Science at University of Science and technology of China. I work with Prof. Falai Chen, Prof. Ligang Liu, and Prof. Xiao-Ming Fu. Before that, I earned my Ph.D. from University of Science and technology of China, advised by Prof. Falai Chen and Prof. Jun Wu (TU Delft). I have visited the Chinese University of Hong Kong for 1 year and Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands for 18 months. My research focus on topology optimization and advanced manufacturing.

Welcome to our lab to explore the mysteries of structural design!
