About简介

I am an incoming Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Iowa State University, where I will establish the Physics & Health via AI and Shape Emulation (PHASE) Lab in Fall 2027. I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley, working with Prof. Shawn Shadden.

我将于 2027 年秋季加入爱荷华州立大学(Iowa State University)机械工程系担任助理教授,并创立 PHASE Lab(Physics & Health via AI and Shape Emulation)。实验室致力于人工智能、计算物理与几何建模的交叉研究。

My research background has evolved from classical thermal-fluid sciences to modern scientific machine learning. I received my B.S. in Thermal Engineering from Tsinghua University, where I gained research experience in combustion. During my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, I studied turbulence modeling under the guidance of Prof. Ramesh Agarwal. I later focused on scientific machine learning during my Ph.D. in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Notre Dame under the guidance of Prof. Jian-Xun Wang.

我本科毕业于清华大学,随后在圣路易斯华盛顿大学师从 Ramesh Agarwal 教授获得硕士学位。我在圣母大学航空航天与机械工程专业师从 Jian-Xun Wang 教授获得博士学位,目前在加州大学伯克利分校 Shawn Shadden 教授课题组从事博士后研究。

My research program integrates scientific machine learning, computational fluid dynamics, and geometric modeling to create scalable tools for many-query analysis and digital twins of PDE-governed systems. These methods support applications ranging from cardiovascular biomechanics to broader multiphysics problems. Through the PHASE Lab, I aim to advance AI-enabled modeling and simulation technologies that accelerate discovery and innovation across the physical and biomedical sciences.

我的研究融合人工智能(AI)、计算流体力学(CFD)与几何建模,致力于构建面向复杂偏微分方程(PDE)系统的智能计算框架,支持大规模参数分析、优化设计、不确定性量化以及数字孪生技术。相关方法已应用于心血管生物力学研究,并可进一步推广至更广泛的多物理场问题。未来,PHASE Lab 将持续探索人工智能与几何建模技术的前沿发展方向,推动物理科学与生物医学科学领域的交叉创新。
