Ren Group

Geometric Computing and Digital Fabrication

Our group focuses on research in geometry, simulation, and computational inverse design. Advancements in digital fabrication technology enable us to create structures featuring intricate geometric details. By developing computational methods, we can design shape-morphing structures that transfer the complexities of assembly, actuation, 3D shape approximation, and structural stability into their fabricated geometries.

We work on developing efficient geometric representations to model the physical systems, robust and accurate PDE solvers to simulate complex phenomena, and numerical optimization algorithms to navigate high-dimensional highly non-convex energy landscapes. We draw both inspiration and validation from practical applications, aiming to develop techniques that address real-world challenges.
