Jun Wu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Sustainable Design Engineering at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering, where he has been a tenure-track faculty member since 2016 and was promoted to Associate Professor in August 2022. He holds two PhDs: one in Computer Science from Technische Universität München (2015) and another in Mechanical Engineering from Beihang University (2012). Prior to TU Delft, he was an HC Ørsted Postdoctoral Fellow at DTU Denmark. Research Interests: His research lies at the intersection of computational design, digital fabrication, and structural optimization. He specializes in topology optimization (generative design) for additive manufacturing, with a focus on space-time optimization, stress-constrained design, multi-material lattices, and bio-inspired infill structures. His work bridges mechanical engineering, computer graphics, and materials science to create high-performance, lightweight, and printable structures. Recent Research Trends: His most recent publications (2023–2025) demonstrate a strong trend toward integrating physical constraints—such as residual stress, thermal distortion, and manufacturability—into topology optimization frameworks. He is pioneering space-time optimization for multi-axis additive manufacturing, developing methods for stress-aligned lattices, and exploring differentiable microstructures. His interdisciplinary work spans biomedical implants, soft robotics, and educational tools for design. Scientific Awards: Frontiers of Science Award, International Congress of Basic Science (2023) 2023 ISSMO Haftka Young Investigator Award 2021 SMA Young Investigator Award Best Paper Award (2nd place), SPM 2019 ISSMO/Springer Prize (2020) Multiple ESI Highly Cited Papers Advising and Grants: He leads a vibrant research group with numerous PhD students and postdocs. In 2023, he was awarded a Vidi grant from the Dutch Research Council (NWO) for his project on Space-time optimization for additive manufacturing . He has also secured funding under the Dutch Research Agenda (NWA) for the project AM4Micro . He actively mentors PhD candidates and has co-organized the IDEA League summer school on Computational Design for Additive Manufacturing since 2020. Labs and Teams: He is affiliated with the Computational Design Lab at TU Delft and is the initiator and convener of the TOP Webinar series since 2020, fostering global collaboration in topology optimization. He serves on the editorial boards of Computer-Aided Design and Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization , and has been a program committee member for major conferences including SPM, CGI, and CVM.
