Joseph received his bachelor’s and Doctorate degrees in mechanical engineering from Virginia Tech in 2014 and 2021, respectively. Joseph’s research is focused on enabling multi-axis material extrusion to improve the mechanical properties of printed parts. By incorporating additional degrees of freedom into the motion control system, toolpaths are able to be highly tailored to the anticipated application space. As a post doctoral researcher, Joseph is currently extending his work in multi-axis toolpath planning by incorporating manufacturing considerations into a topology optimization routine. In this way, fabricated parts will be optimized in the context of both topology and toolpath.
