Shahadat Hussain

Shahadat Hussain, PhD, is a Research Associate in Mechanical Engineering at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Specializing in advanced materials science, he focuses on metamaterials, additive manufacturing (particularly laser powder bed fusion), triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) lattices, and NiTi shape memory alloys for applications in aerospace, medical devices, and robotics. With a PhD in Materials Science and Technology, Shahadat combines computational design, experimental characterization, mechanical testing, and data science to tackle challenges like Ni evaporation, microstructural imperfections, and phase transformations in 3D-printed structures. His work advances tunable metamaterials with unique properties (e.g., negative refractive indices) and shape memory material...
