Yi Huang

Yi Huang 's research focuses on the deformation mechanism and mechanical behavior of advanced materials for aerospace, automotive, marine and biomedical applications. Her research aims to understand the correlation between the microstructures and mechanical properties of advanced materials to develop materials with better performance in engineering applications and to optimize process parameters for high-value manufacturing. She has undertaken many research projects, which were sponsored by the US Army Research Office, US Department of Energy, EPSRC, Royal Society, British Academy and ERC. She collaborates widely with colleagues from different international institutions. Her group works on developing high performance ultrafine-grained materials for applications from cryogenic to high temperature, which has led to 165 peer-reviewed journal paper publications, with 4490 citations and a hi-index of 38 (Google Scholar). Dr Huang is a Fellow of Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IMMM) and a member of EPSRC Peer Review College. As an invited fund review expert, she has reviewed research proposals for German Research Foundation, Czech Science Foundation and Royal Society. She is a member of the editorial board of three journals and a regular reviewer for 33 peer-reviewed journals. Dr Huang received PhD in Metallurgy and Materials from the University of Birmingham. She joined Bournemouth University in 2018. Between 2011 and 2018, she was a senior research fellow working with Prof. Terence G. Langdon (Fellow of Royal Academy of Engineering) at the University of Southampton. Prior to 2011, she worked as a research fellow at three different universities, including University of Southern California, University of Cambridge and University of Strathclyde. She also had a span of industrial working experience as a Materials Engineer in an automotive company, JVM Castings Ltd.
