About
Farzaneh Sameni is a leading researcher in advanced manufacturing, with a primary focus on additive manufacturing of functional materials, particularly soft magnetic composites. Her work bridges materials science and mechanical engineering to create high-performance components for robotics, energy electronics, and electromagnetic applications. Sameni’s most cited paper, “3D Printing Soft Magnet: Binder Study for Vat Photopolymerization of Ferrosilicon Magnetic Composites” (2023, 8 citations), introduces a novel approach using Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) masking—a vat photopolymerization technique—to 3D print soft magnetic parts with exceptional resolution and geometric complexity. This work systematically investigates binder formulations to optimize the magnetic and mechanical properties of ferrosilicon composites, enabling the production of larger, lighter-weight, and more efficient components than traditional methods allow. By demonstrating that additive manufacturing can achieve both high structural fidelity and functional magnetic performance, Sameni’s contributions open new pathways for designing compact, high-torque motors, lightweight actuators, and efficient energy conversion devices. Her research is particularly impactful for next-generation robotics and power electronics, where reduced weight and improved efficiency are critical. Sameni’s work exemplifies how process-structure-property relationships in 3D printing can be tailored to meet demanding engineering requirements, positioning her as an innovator in the field of functional additive manufacturing.
