Postdoctoral researcher 09/2024 - current
Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ United States
Industry: Education and Scientific Institution
Led collaboration with AMAT, developing and validating a FEM (Multiphysics + RF) model to analyze heating effects of electric and magnetic fields. Designed an experimental plan for an SRP project on combustion waste, potentially saving hundreds of millions. Trained one PhD and three Master's students in MW heating, FJH, Raman Spectroscopy, and MD simulations.
• Led the cooperation project with AMAT, establish the FEM model (Multiphysics+RF) and cross-validate with films, O-rings, ceramics to understand the heating effects of electric and magnetic fields • Designed the experimental plan for a cooperation project with SRP, dealing with the combustion waste in saving hundred million dollars cost • Trained 1 new PhD and 3 Master students in microwave (MW) heating, flash Joule heating (FJH), Raman Spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD)--
Chemical Engineer 08/2018 - 07/2019
China Jushi USA co., ltd., Columbia, SC United States
Industry: Manufacturing
Led cultural shift by coaching peers and managing the most challenging production line. Supervised recruitment across multiple roles, adapting standards to local labor markets. Conducted FMEA and chemical measurements, cutting process time by 50% using Six Sigma. Streamlined training for 100 international employees, completing FFD training in three months. Prevented a major failure at 20% of projected cost through strong safety awareness. Optimized warehouse delivery, reducing processing time by 50%.
• Shift culture, coaching other employees and peers, volunteered to take account of the hardest production line of the company • Established strong accountability on supervising recruitment for the forming technician, technology technician, quality technician and forklift driver, while adapting the standard to the local labor market under the company’s regulation. • Conducted the FMEA of wetting agent content test and measurements of chemical agent in a high pace environment, established the documentation and living document under Six Sigma method, completing the same work in 50% of time • Provided an escalation path for 100 international employees in supporting a robust training system by bridging the gap between the employees and department manager, completed training the new employees for the fiber forming department (FFD) in 3 months • Prevented a catastrophic failure at 20% cost as planned in the medical accident with great safety awareness • Optimized the delivery system with the warehouse team in reduction of 50% processing time--

Education:

Beihang University 08/2012 - 08/2016
Tempe, AZ, United States
Degree: Bachelor's Degree
Major:Materials Science and Engineering
• Prepared flax/carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer composites to study the modifying (HCl/H2SO4/NaOH/Silicone modifier) effects of the fibers • Characterized the microstructure, strength, and wettability of artificial fiber reinforced composites • Operated the optical/SEM microscope, infrared (IR) test and contact angle measurement


University of Southern California 08/2016 - 05/2018
Tempe, AZ, United States
Degree: Master's Degree
Major:Materials Engineering
• By bio-mimic nacre design of the graphene composite, the SLA 3D-printed nacre with aligned GNs (2 weight %) shows lightweight property (1.06 g/cm3) was developed while exhibiting comparable specific toughness and strength to the natural nacre, which could sense its damage with a hesitated resistance change, visualizing the centimeter scale damage which might not be detected by eyes • Investigated different structure designs of bio-mimic samples of carbon nanotube-reinforced polymeric composites, which raises its highest weight gain to 2 mg min-1 mm-3
Arizona State University 08/2019 - 08/2024
Tempe, AZ, United States
Degree: Doctoral Degree
Major:Materials Science
Collaborated with PhDs across disciplines at ASU and other universities. First to simulate graphite-to-diamond phase transition under confinement using MD and DFT, explaining mechanisms and predicting transitions under shockwaves. Optimized heat transfer in FDM 3D printing via IR camera and FEM, improving accuracy to 90% and predicting printed PLA, HIPS, and PE quality. Supervised two students.
