Summary
Jakub Mikula is a Senior Scientist at A*STAR with nine years of experience using high-fidelity multiscale modeling to advance additive manufacturing, especially thermal/mechanical simulation, crystal plasticity, and solid-solid phase transformations. He develops digital-twin frameworks and multi-physics simulation tools that bridge computational solid mechanics, phase-field modeling, and elasto-plastic fatigue and crack-growth prediction. Trained as a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at NUS, he combines rigorous academic research with practical FEM solver development and hands-on experience in fracture mechanics from earlier research and consulting roles. Beyond research, he contributes through teaching, mentoring and public science outreach, indicating a strong commitment to translating complex simulations into accessible knowledge and usable engineering workflows.
