Hazeli Research Group

In our research group led by Dr. Kavan Hazeli, we research two distinctive subjects:

1) Mechanics and Design. We are interested in designing, testing, and optimizing the mechanical properties of multifunctional materials for high temperature, fatigue, impact, and biomedical application. In our lab, we use combined experimental and modeling techniques to understand microstructural mechanisms by which structural materials deform and resist impact, fracture, and fatigue.

2) Human-centred Design. We also design and build life-assisting robotic systems and advanced glasses. We use cutting-edge technologies in robotics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, light detection and ranging (LiDAR), and additive manufacturing to integrate human needs, capabilities, and behavior in our design.
