معرفی
Anastasia Markou is a Visiting Professor in the Department of Energy and Mechanical Engineering at Aalto University, affiliated with the Materials to Products program. She holds a doctoral degree (Tekn. toht., konetekniikka) awarded on 26 May 2025. Her research focuses on lattice materials, mechanical property optimization, and finite element simulation techniques. Key areas include mass redistribution in planar lattice structures, hybrid material systems, and novel topological designs.
Her work bridges theoretical models with practical applications, leveraging additive manufacturing for material innovation. Notable contributions include a 2025 doctoral thesis on mechanical property tailoring and a 2022 journal article proposing a novel parameter for prismatic lattice anisotropy control.
Markou has presented research at conferences, including discussions on optimizing lattice cell wall thickness (2018) and anisotropy control in prismatic lattices (2021). Her studies emphasize analytical models alongside experimental validation, addressing challenges in density, elastic moduli, and compressive strength across materials.
