Dr. Yuri Mejia is a Research Associate at the University of Sheffield, specialising in the digitalisation of manufacturing processes. Her work focuses on developing solutions for in-process monitoring, real-time simulation, and integrating sustainability and circular economy principles into advanced manufacturing systems. She collaborates with industry to enhance efficiency and quality in sectors such as aerostructures and high-rate production systems.
She has contributed to major research initiatives, including DELTA, DAWN, and Circular 4.0,focusing on data analytics, monitoring algorithms, and sustainable manufacturing strategies. Her expertise spans time-series data analysis, failure mode modelling, and the development of simulation models to evaluate circular economy impacts.
Dr. Mejia holds a PhD in Electronic Engineering from the Industrial University of Santander, Colombia, where she optimised compressive sensor systems. She has published her findings in internationally recognised journals and works closely with academic and industry partners to advance digital manufacturing research.
Dr Mejia is committed to advancing sustainability in manufacturing by integrating cutting-edge technologies and fostering innovation that addresses the challenges of modern industries
