Fellow of Corpus Christi College
Head of the Structures Group, Department of Engineering
University of Cambridge, UK
Summary:
Dr Seffen jointly runs the Advanced Structures Group with Dr Simon Guest, researching and finding solutions for novel lightweight, deployable and/or shape-changing (morphing) structures. KAS is a Chartered Mathematician, and a member of the Institute of Maths and its Applications (IMA) and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). He is Director of Studies for Engineering at Corpus Christi, and he lectures on Structural Mechanics in CUED thoughout the Tripos.
