简介: 讲座人介绍: Dr. Qianhong Wu is a tenured Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Villanova University. He is the founding director of Villanova Cellular Biomechanics and Sports Science Laboratory (CBMSS). Dr. Wu received his Ph.D. in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering in 2005, from The City College of The City University of New York & New York Center for Biomedical Engineering (NYCBE), working with CUNY distinguished Professor, Dr. Sheldon Weinbaum. Before joining NYCBE in 1999, Dr. Wu had a B.S. in mechanical engineering from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), and a M.S. in electrical engineering from the Institute of Electrical Engineering, The Chinese Academy of Sciences. In August 2005, Dr. Wu started his faculty career as an Assistant Professor at Villanova University. He was promoted to an Associate Professor with tenure in May 2011. Dr. Wu applies fundamental principles of fluid dynamics to the bio and bio-inspired applications. His research interests include porous medial flow, fluid dynamic and transport aspects of biological systems, cardiovascular engineering, brain biomechanics, cellular mechanisms for mechanotransduction, bone fluid flow, hemodynamics, sports biomechanics, and soft/super lubrication. He has published extensively on these topics. Especially, Dr. Wu’s group is widely recognized for developing a novel experimental and theoretical approach to study the lift generation inside soft porous media. This approach was successfully applied to such diverse problems as the frictionless motion of a red cell in a tightly fitting capillary, the lift forces generated during skiing or snowboarding, the design of a futuristic train track, in addition to classical lubrication theory applications. This research was reported extensively in Science®, Nature®, Scientific American®, PhysicsWeb®, Discover Channel ® and hundreds of public media world widely. These research projects are supported by the National Science Foundation of US (NSF), the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Office of Naval Research (ONR). Synergistic Activities · Member of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES), American Physical Society (APS), American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE), International Sports Engineering Association (ISEA); · Reviewer for multiple peer-reviewed journals, including Journal of Porous Media, Journal of Sports Engineering, Journal of Biomechanics, Chemical Engineering Sciences, Journal of Sports Science, European Biophysics Journal, Microvascular Research etc. · Being invited to give talks in multiple institutions around the world for the pioneering work in soft porous media transport.
