Research

My research strength is mainly in mechanics of materials with an emphasis on

(1) Microstructure-property relations of manufacturing- and energy-relevant materials;

(2) Characterization and manipulation of biological systems with medical applications.

Specific research interests include:

I. Mechanics of Materials

a. Microsystems for in situ materials characterization

b. Thermo-mechanical properties

c. Electro-mechanical properties

II. Biological Systems

a. Bionanotechnology

b. Biomechanics

III. Dynamic Systems

a. Impact mechanics

b. Vibration
