Macro-Micro Theory on Multifield Coupling Behavior of Heterogeneous Materials (PDF)

1. Qing-Hua Qin's research interests include computational mechanics, biomechanics, and multifield materials and structures. He received his Bachelor of Engineering degree in mechanical engineering from Xi'an Highway University (currently Chang An University), China in 1982, earning his Master of Science degree in 1984 and Doctoral degree in 1990 from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in China. Both degrees are in applied mechanics. He joined the Department of Mechanics as an associate lecturer at HUST in 1984, and was promoted to lecturer of mechanics in 1987 during his PhD candidature period. After spending ten years lecturing at HUST, he was awarded the DAAD/K.C. Wong research fellowship in 1994, which enabled him to work at the University of Stuttgart in Germany for nine months. In 1995 he left HUST to take up a postdoctoral research fellowship at Tsinghua University, China, where he worked until 1997. He was awarded a Queen Elizabeth II fellowship in 1997 and a Professorial fellowship in 2002 at University of Sydney and stayed there till December 2003, both by the Australian Research Council, and is currently working in the Department of Engineering at the Australian National University, Australia. He was appointed a guest professor at HUST in 2000. He was also appointed a Member of editorial board of the Chinese Journal of Computational Mechanics from 2003 and an associate Editor of the International Journal of Tomography and Statistics from 2005. He has published more than 160 scientific papers and four books in the field of applied mechanics, and was a recipient of the J.G. Russell Award from the Australian Academy of Science and a Natural Science Prize (2nd grade) from the Ministry of Education of China.
