About Hussein Hussein Hussein Hussein Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Electrical and Computer Engineering Mechanics MEMS robotics mechatronic systems Hussein Hussein is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Integrated Circuits and Systems Research Group under the supervision of Professor Hossein Fariborzi in King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). Hussein obtained his PhD in engineering sciences and microsystems from University of Franche-Comté. He has a mechanical engineering degree from the Lebanese University and a Master degree in Mechatronic systems from University of Compiegne . Research Interests Mechanics and Mechatronics at macro and micro scale. Modeling, design and fabrication of microsystems and MEMS structures Events Presented Events Nov 29 - Dec 5, 2020 Mobile Microrobotics Hussein Hussein, Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Electrical and Computer Engineering Nov 29, 12:00 - 13:00 KAUST mobile Microrobotics The implementation of robotic solutions to accomplish automated tasks in industrial sectors has tremendously increased the human performance capacity and enhanced the cost, quality and delivery time for different tasks and products. Having already proven their utility at the macroscale, robots also show their usefulness when we approach the infinitely small dimensions, for applications such as inspection, cell manipulation, assembly, biopsy and drug delivery. The way to the microworld is not that simple; reducing the size of robots from macro scale to micro scale cannot be accomplished by merely miniaturizing the different parts of an existing robot. The variation in the scale of physical effects with the size scale and the difficulties of fabrication and assembly at the micro scale make the macro-solutions for actuation and sensing unsuitable for microdevices. Other actuation mechanisms with deformable structures and integrated sensing solutions are more efficient at microscale and compatible with microfabrication limitations. This talk focuses on different aspects related to mobile microrobots, including limitations and challenges, actuation mechanisms, power delivery, and current works in our team for the development of mobile microrobots.
