Employment History
10/2010 – Present, Research Assistant Professor, the University of Western Australia (UWA), Australia;
03/2007 – 10/2010, Research Fellow, Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA) at NUS, Singapore.
Research Interests
My previous research work was focusing on developing meshfree methods/extended FEM and their applications in various fields. The most important achievement is the development of Smoothed Point Interpolation Method (S-PIM) and the applications in static and dynamic analysis of solid mechanics problems, adaptive analysis, plate and shell structures and field problems (heat transfer and acoustic problems).
My current work is on conducting the ARC Discovery grant for the project "Towards Consistent Meshless Computational Framework for Soft Tissue Damage Modelling for Traumatic Injury Prevention and Surgery Simulation", which requires developing a nonlinear explicit dynamic meshfree algorithms for the numerical simulation of soft tissue damage process.
Hobbies
Playing tennis, soccer, badminton and other ball games;
Travelling and photograph
