Research Interests:
·
Computational Materials Science: To develop a common
language among design, property, microstructure and processing. The
first to propose processing path model [17,21], applied in finding processing path to satisfy
multiple physical properties requirement, including elastic, plastic,
electrical, thermal and magnetic properties. It is applied in structural alloys
[17,21,22,23,25], fuel
cell electrode [16,18,19], nanotube composites [10,5,12,], iron
choke [14] and
UHMWPE (orthopedic arthroplasty) [5,13].
·
Statistical Continuum Mechanics: Frontrunner in multiscale modeling using statistical continuum mechanics,
an efficient method in materials design [17- 25],
microstructure reconstruction [1,7],
properties prediction [10-14] and
performance evaluation. Applied in energy science [16,18,19], nuclear
energy advanced modeling and simulation [11], multiscale modeling on mechanical performance and thermal
properties evolution of structural materials after irradiation.
·
Biomechanics and biomaterials: Working on two areas.
One is to enhance life of artificial arthraplasty by
improving wear resistance under guidance of materials design. The other one is
3D print of scaffold, tissue and artificial vascular using cellulose
nanowhiskers.
·
Fabrication and processing advanced nanocomposites: aligning carbon nanotubes
[26,32,31] and
cellulose nanowhiskers under external force field. The first to fabricate cellulose
nanowhisker paper.
·
Fabricating nanoscale fuel
cell electrodes under guidance of materials design using spray pyrolysis [15,16,18,19]. The
first to fabricate fuel cell electrodes in large area fast using spray
pyrolysis.
