About Myself 

I earned a BE in Strength for Aerospace Vehicle in 1993 from Northwestern Polytechnical University (NPU), Xi'an, China. Then obtained my PhD in Structural Mechanics in 1999 from Dalian University of Technology (DUT), Dalian, China. After working as a postdoctoral in DUT for half a year, I joined The University of Sydney. My current research fields are

Computational mechanics;
Stitched composite laminated structure.

It is always a pleasure to work in this efficient research group, full of challenge and happiness. I'm looking forward to gaining more achievements and experiences here in the near future.

Work is not the only thing in my life. Sports give me a lot of fun in my spare time and table tennis is my favorite. It is also not a bad idea to go to cinema on the weekend.
