  • Ph.D in Mechanical and Automation Engineering (Advisor: Prof. Wei-Hsin Liao)

    • The Chinese University of Hong Kong [July. 2015-Aug. 2021]

  • B. Eng in Mechanical Engineering and Automation (Advisor: Prof. Prof. Yong Hu)

    • Jilin University [Aug. 2011-Jun. 2015]

Research Experience

  • A novel and advanced sectioning system (microtome) for fresh soft tissue [Aug. 2021-present]

    • Developed microtome with high working frequency (up to 360Hz) based on vibration cancellation by compliant mechanism.

    • Developed an active vibration control platform and power amplifier module for microtome.

    • Incorporating microtome into a single-photon microscope system for high resolution and fast 3D imaging of fresh tissue samples (on going).

  • Adaptive Poisson’s ratio structures [July. 2019-Aug. 2021]

    • Designed and fabricated a structure with adaptive Poisson’s ratio by direct FDM 4D printing.

    • The Poisson’s ratio of structure could adapt from positive to negative.

    • Designed structure could undergo large deformation.

  • Direct 4D printing with shape memory polymer by fused deposition modelling (FDM) [July. 2015-Aug. 2019]

    • Developed a direct FDM 4D printing method with shape memory polymer.

    • Figured out the mechanism on inducing pre-strain during FDM printing process.

    • Developed programming method for complex shape transformation from simple and flat structures (conical and doubly curved constructional structures, helical and twisting structures, double-helix DNA structure, functional gripper obtained by shape transformation of 4D printing).

    • Developed 3D macroscopic constitutive model for shape memory polymer.
