Brief Biography
Dr.Yuanwen Gao is a professor in the Department of Mechanics and Engineering Science at Lanzhou University. He was born in Gansu Province, China, in 1974. He received the B.S., M.S and Ph. D. degree from Lanzhou University, China, in 1996, 1999 and 2002, respectively. He had worked as a postdoctor in Max-Planck Institute of Metals Researches at Germany from September of 2005 to August of 2006, and as a contract researcher in KAIST at Korea from December of 2008 to February of 2009. He has published over 100 refereed journal papers, and delivered over 20 invited/keynote talks and lectures.
Research Interests
He is now interested in developing the mechanical-electric coupling model of superconducting wire, cable and magnets system for investigating the coupling characteristics between the undesired degradation of superconducting performance and the deformation of superconducting cables. His other research topics include the nonlinear dynamic magnetoelectric effect of the layered composites, the nonlinear coupling characteristics of the deformable ferromagnetic structures, the tenability of bandgap of magnetoelastic phononic crystal structures, the modeling and optimization on the thermoelectric materials and structures, and the mechanical behaviors of the protein microtubules, graphene, etc.
