DESCRIPTION:Dr. Peng Song - EPFL IC IINFCOM Computer Graphics and Geometr
 y Laboratory (LGG)\nAbstract 3D assemblies involve multiple component par
 ts. Rather than relying on additional fasteners such as nails and screws t
 o connect the parts\, component parts can be interlocked into a steady ass
 embly based on their own geometric arrangements. This talk revisits the no
 tion of 3D interlocking\, and explores the governing mechanics of general 
 3D interlocking assemblies. From this\, constructive approaches are develo
 ped for computational design of various new interlocking assemblies such a
 s puzzles\, 3D printed objects and furniture. These interlocking assemblie
 s are ready for fabrication and their steadiness have been validated in ou
 r experiments.\n\nBio Peng Song is a postdoctoral researcher at EPFL\, wo
 rking with Prof. Mark Pauly since October 2017. He received his B.S. degre
 e from Harbin Institute of Technology in 2007\, M.S. degree from Harbin In
 stitute of Technology (Shenzhen) in 2009\, and Ph.D. from Nanyang Technolo
 gical University\, Singapore in 2013. His research interests lie in comput
 er graphics and computational fabrication. His research works could be fou
 nd at his research website.
