Yihui Zhang is a Professor of ?Engineering Mechanics at Tsinghua University. His group is dedicated ?to addressing the grand challenges in the frontiers of science and ?technologies through creative uses of mechanics principles and ?cross-fertilization among diverse disciplines, which drives ?development of new mechanics theories and computational models of ?advanced materials/structures, as well as novel designs and ?fabrication approaches of materials/devices with unprecedented ?properties and functionalities.? He has published > 160 ?peer-reviewed journal papers, including, 3 in Science, 1 in Nature, 25 ?in Nature/Science sister journals, 7 in PNAS, 12 in JMPS (the best ?solid-mechanics journal), and 13 in Advanced Materials.? Dr. Zhang is ?the recipient of several honors and awards, including, ASME Gustus L. ?Larson Memorial Award (2022), NSFC National Science Fund for ?Distinguished Young Scholars (2022), The Xplorer Prize (2021), ?Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher (2020), ASME Thomas J.R. Hughes ?Young Investigator Award (2019), Society of Engineering Science’s ?Young Investigator Medal (2018), ASME Sia Nemat-Nasser Early Career ?Award (2018), Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty (2017), ASME ?Melville Medal (2017), and MIT Technology Review's 35 Innovators Under ?35 (2016). He is an associate editor of Science Advances, Research, ?Mechanics of Materials, ASME-Journal of Applied Mechanics and ?International Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, and serves on the ?editorial board of several other academic journals.
