His research at the LUH focuses on the developments and applications of state-of-the-art particle-based computational methods in engineering mechanics. It aims to reveal the fundamentals of multi-scale and multi-physical material behaviours. The outcomes can further benefit a vast category of engineering designs and manufacturing processes such as concrete constructions, foundations of offshore wind turbines, and metal additive manufacturing.
Before joining the LUH, Yupeng Jiang was a Postdoctoral research fellow and group leader at the Department of Civil Engineering, the University of Hong Kong, China. Awarded the Dean's Award for Outstanding Theses, Yupeng received his Master of Philosophy (M.Phil.) at the University of Queensland. He then completed his Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Geomechanics at The University of Sydney, holding the Australian research council (ARC) scholarship and University of Sydney International Scholarship (UsydIS).
Yupeng Jiang will initiate a new English-based postgraduate course “Particle methods in Engineering Mechanics” starting in the winter semester of 2023/24. It offers a series of comprehensive yet detailed lectures for the methodology and applications of main-stream particle methods.
