Leo De Vin
Research
Leo’s current research interests include manufacturing engineering and technologies, integrated product development, human factors in engineering, and lean production
Leo’s earlier research focused on computer aided process planning for sheet metal components. Leo developed an analytical simulation model for air bending and a method to address tolerances during planning of bending sequences. Through his work on process planning, he developed an interest for integrated product development and concurrent engineering. His research further interests include human factors in engineering, industrial informatics, and sustainable manufacturing. More recent work has been related to virtual manufacturing, optimisation, and information fusion for decision support.
Currently, Leo has initiated research on how to train industrial workers in lean manufacturing and how this can stimulate the innovation capacity of a company or company network.
Teaching
Examiner and Supervisor for student theses in Innovation Engineering & Design, in Mechanical Engineering, and in Industrial Management.
Teaching various courses related to manufacturing technologies and production engineering.
