Do Tho Truong, PhD
Director, Mechanical Engineering program, College of Engineering and Computer Science
Biography
Upon graduation from the University of Science and Technology, Dr. Truong worked as a lecturer at the University of Transport and Communications. He completed his master’s degree in France and Spain and received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Michigan State University, United States. Truong also worked for a NASA funded project “Empirical Optimization of Additive Manufacturing” at the Additive Manufacturing Center, University of Louisville. In this project, machine learning used for defect detection was based on in-situ monitoring signals from multiple types of sensors mounted on the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) system. He also worked on other projects funded by the US Air Force Research Lab, and the National Institutes of Health.
