Integration and Investigation of Metal Riveting Techniques (Research Project @ NTU)

    After I finished my ungraduated study and got my BS degree, I chose to study for my master degree of mechanical engineering and joined Precision Engineering Laboratory led by Prof. Kuang-Yuh Huang, where we worked on research projects and my master thesis. In 2009, we started a university-industry research cooperation plan with Foxconn Electronics Inc., “Integration and Investigation of Metal Riveting Techniques.” We provided precise FEA simulation and experiment results and helped Foxconn derive the performance of fastening rivets and lower the cost of its sever products. (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)
