Biography
I was born in China and graduated from Zhengzhou University in 2018 with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. Then I went to Newcastle University in the UK to study an MSc in Mechanical Engineering and in 2019 I got an MSc in Mechanical Engineering. After that, I returned to China for a year and worked as an assistant in Deyi Cultural and Creative Co., Ltd. In 2021, he will come to the UK to study for a master's degree in automotive engineering at the University of Leeds again, and obtain a master's degree in automotive engineering in 2022. After that, I came to the University of Sheffield to start my PHD degree.

Research
My PhD project, supervised by Dr. Xizhong Chen, Dr. Rachel Smith, is titled "A New Approach to Understanding Multiphase Systems and Their Industrial Applications". My project focuses on developing a new numerical method to aid in the design, optimization and scale-up of polyphase systems. At present, the main research is about application of reduced order model in mixer.
