Patents by Inventor Kevin H. Kang

Kevin H. Kang has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10894362
    Abstract: A method for specifying and fabricating non-homogeneous, anisotropic, truly functionally graded objects. The objects may have defined spatial heterogeneity (e.g., a gradient in material concentration) with local randomized distributions. This local randomness is designed in such a way that global averaging results in the specified spatial heterogeneity. The fabrication of structures is an additive process in which a material is deposited in defined patterns.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 23, 2018
    Date of Patent: January 19, 2021
    Assignee: CORNELL UNIVERSITY
