Professor Liang Tian, doctoral supervisor, young talent class A of Xi'an Jiaotong University. Bachelor graduated from Central South University in 2010 with a major in materials science and engineering (extracurricular activities won the first prize of Hunan Province College Students for Math/Physics Competition respectively); master graduated in 2011 majored in Materials Science and Engineering at Iowa State University in the United States; master graduated in 2012 majored in Engineering Mechanics (mathematics minor) at Iowa State University, and Ph.D graduated in 2015 majored in Materials Science and Engineering from Iowa State University/Ames National Laboratory (Supervisor: Professor Alan Russell (collaborator of Dan Shechtman--2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry), Professor Iver Anderson (Member of the National Inventors Hall of Fame, member of the board of directors and fellow of TMS---the most authoritative international organization for metallic materials (total number of people around the globe is around 100, only 2 people in China) and 4 other fellows of international academic organizations related to metallic materials).
The research directions are as follows:
1. Processing, mechanical and electrical properties of metal materials (such as powder metallurgy)
2. Key electronic materials (such as conductive cable materials, flexible electronics materials)
3. Computational materials related methodology (machine learning, scientific research software development and parallel computing, solid state physics surrounding the theory of atomic-level dynamics/thermodynamics/phonons, simulation methods (first principles, molecular dynamics, activation and relaxation technique, phase field, Monte Carlo, cluster expansion))
4. top down and bottom up approach to synthesize the microscale and nanoscale conductive metal matrix composites
From 2015 to 2020, he did his postdoctoral research at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor, the University of Alabama, and Purdue University. From 2020, he took the permanent full-time position as a high-performance computing senior IT engineer in the United States. On December 19, 2022, he joined as a professor at Frontier Institute of Science and Technology of Xi'an Jiaotong University, and a member of the Frontier Electronics Research Center. He has published more than 20 papers in authoritative journals of metallic materials, such as Acta Materialia, Composites Part A, Scripta Materialia, Materials Science and Engineering A, etc., and his research has been positively reported by international authoritative media such as Advanced Science News, US Department of Energy, and physics.org. Developed two computational software for materials research. Served as the editorial board member of international journals Materials, Processes, etc., and the reviewer for 30 high-level journals such as Acta Materialia, Composites Part B, Composites Part A, Materials & Design, etc. Invited to give oral reports 10 times at top international and domestic conferences such as MRS, TMS, and Beijing Advanced Forum.
Each year, about 1-2 international doctoral students outside of China are recruited. Students with background in materials, mechanical engineering, physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, mechanics, software engineering, high-performance computing and other related majors or research backgrounds are welcome to apply. The research team will provide students with excellent career development opportunities (such as participation in famous international and domestic conferences, foreign exchange visits, industrial and scientific research skills training, etc.).
Each year opportunity for recruitment of undergraduate students who have a solid background in math, physics and computer science for international undergraduate intern research.
Long-term recruitment of postdoctoral fellows, and provide them with excellent career development opportunities.
