About

Elmira Sharabian’s research sits at the dynamic intersection of advanced manufacturing and digital transformation, with a primary focus on the synergy between Industry 4.0 and additive manufacturing (AM). Her most-cited work, a 2022 review paper with 92 citations, provides a comprehensive analysis of how data-driven manufacturing systems and product service systems are being integrated to drive the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This foundational contribution clarifies the pathways through which AM technologies can be embedded into smart factories, enabling more agile, customized, and efficient production. By mapping the convergence of cyber-physical systems, IoT, and 3D printing, Sharabian has helped define a critical research agenda for next-generation manufacturing. Her work is particularly valued for its forward-looking perspective on how these technologies can reshape supply chains and product lifecycles. With her insights already shaping discussions in industrial engineering and production management, Elmira Sharabian is establishing herself as a key voice in the ongoing evolution of intelligent, data-centric manufacturing ecosystems.
